Forget-Me-Not Posted May 9, 2012 Share Posted May 9, 2012 Yikes! Did you call poison control? It's probably fine, but I think I'd double check. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wendi Posted May 9, 2012 Share Posted May 9, 2012 Yikes! I guess you call a pharmacy or somewhere to make sure you're okay? Be careful, you! :001_smile: Wendi Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SBMama Posted May 9, 2012 Share Posted May 9, 2012 I almost took our dogs Rimadyl (anti-inflammatory pain med) a few weeks ago. It is even brown and flavored, and I'm not sure what I was thinking! I popped it in and :ack2: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ktgrok Posted May 9, 2012 Share Posted May 9, 2012 LOL! I've taken dog dewormer on purpose before, if it makes you feel better. It was just after the CDC released stats on the percentage of people in the south with intestinal parasites, and I worked at a vet and had access to the human dosage info. i was fine. I didn't take intereptor though. Oh, and on thanksgiving, when I was pregnant with my daughter, I accidentally took my dog's xanax. I had a prenatal vitamin out, and her xanax, and got distracted and took the wrong one. I have ZERO memories of that entire dinner, but we swear it is why my daughter was so mellow as a baby :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LaxMom Posted May 9, 2012 Share Posted May 9, 2012 Ack! :ack2: I've done that, but mistaking ear cleaner for eye drops. (big, rectangular dropper bottle vs small, cylindrical dropper bottle... :001_huh:) Man. That hurt! And my eye was weird for a while... Probably from the lack of eyelash mites.

BigMamaBird Posted May 9, 2012 Share Posted May 9, 2012 You're probably fine, but you may want to call Poison Control, or at least a Vet. When our dog had heartworm they treated it with arsenic. I'd hate to hear that's in the preventative. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Momof3littles Posted May 9, 2012 Share Posted May 9, 2012 My dog takes generic prozac. I often think it wouldn't be bad for me to mix up meds and accidentally take some. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well after the OMYGOSH I hope you are OK comes the :lol:! I do hope you are all right. I once was told by a girl I worked with that her highschool boyfriend thought her bc pills were candy and while she was in the bathroom he popped each little one in his mouth and started eating them!

I'd hate to hear that's in the preventative. Luckily there is no arsenic in the preventatives (nor the current treatment). A vet can't give out medical information for people, so I'd call poison control just to be safe. It doesn't cost anything to call. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I talk to the trees Posted May 9, 2012 Share Posted May 9, 2012 So, the burning question for me is... What flavor exactly *are* the Interceptor FlavorTabs? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mom-ninja. Posted May 9, 2012 Share Posted May 9, 2012 Well, people can get heart worms so now you know you are safe. :lol: If you find yourself eating dog food make sure it's not the recalled bags. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Danestress Posted May 9, 2012 Author Share Posted May 9, 2012 Sorry if I seemed flippant. I did call the manufacturer of Interceptor. They said I would be fine. They said they get 3-4 inquries a week about this, so I am glad to be in good company! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nukeswife Posted May 9, 2012 Share Posted May 9, 2012 Every morning when I get up I take my nexium and give my new dog her Dasuquin (supplement for her arthritis) the other day I shoved my nexium in a pill pocket and almost popped her Dasuquin. Luckily I noticed before I took it and gave the pill pocket to her. Not sure how I mixed those up since the nexium is an average sized purple capsule and the Dasuquin is a brown meat flavored tablet 2.5 times the size of a sweetart. :confused: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Education Explorers Posted May 9, 2012 Share Posted May 9, 2012 I think it is wonderful that you will have a nice shiny coat now. You may have an "interesting" night if you find yourself nudging your husband's hand to get him to scratch your belly and behind your ears. :lol: My pediatrician got a big kick out of me when I asked if my son would be okay after I found him snacking out of the dog's food bowl. Kid was the pickiest eater, but apparently he loved doggie kibble. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
