I. Can pets take human medicine?
Of course not, the reason why there are medicines for humans, animals, and pets proves that there are essential differences. For example, our most common antibiotics are divided into people and pets, but many owners do not know it, thinking that reducing the dosage can reduce the harm to pets.
Be aware that even pet-specific antibiotics have certain risks to animals, not to mention that human-use antibiotics pose even greater risks to pets.
Second, what are the hazards of human drug use to animals?
1. It can be fatal for pets to use medicines for humans.
When dogs have a cold, some owners will use children’s cold medicines, thinking that children’s medicines are weaker, but we think Said, considering the weak medicinal properties, the medicinal ingredients may not necessarily be thought of.
You are not a professional veterinarian, so you don’t know which ingredients are harmful to pets.
Acetaminophen, like Pediatric Paracetamol Huangnamin Granules, is highly toxic to cats and poisonous to dogs! Another example is that human cold medicines generally contain caffeine, and dogs will have convulsions, convulsions, and even coma and death if they overdo it.
2. The dosage of human medicine is far beyond the tolerance of pets
Many owners do not control the dosage of human medicine for pet feeding, too little, it will not work for large dogs, Too much can be fatal for small dogs.
Many owners who feed their pets with human medicine are like gambling, they are mentally upset and often self-comfort, but I want to say, go to the hospital honestly and put your heart down, isn’t it?
3. Drug abuse can make pets resistant to antibiotics
The most commonly abused drug is antibiotics.
Many times when pets are sick, they want to give some antibiotics, but in fact, for pets, the normal feeding time of antibiotics should not exceed one week. Of course, continuous feeding of medicines can stabilize the pet’s condition temporarily,
/p>
But once there is a more serious disease next time, then the amount prescribed by the doctor will not work on the pet, so the dose is increased every time, and eventually the durability of the pet to antibiotics will be reduced. If it is gone, it is really bringing the dog into the heated kang.
Third, how to use the medicine for pets in the end
No matter what kind of disease it is, the first thing is to diagnose it first, and then prescribe the right medicine. For example, if a dog does not eat, it may be sick, it may be anorexia, or it may be a picky eater.
I believe that no doctor would say that a dog is sick if he doesn’t eat, so when a pet is sick, seek a doctor. The right medicine is the responsibility of the pet, and the owner should not think about feeding the pet with human medicine!
