Is it safe to get Tylenol for dogs?

Answer by  Amanduh97 (29)

You CAN give a dog human Tylenol, but some results for different dogs could prove fatal. There is over the counter Asprin for dogs at least 15 pounds.

You should never give your dog any kind of human medication unless your Vet told you to do so. These medications can be lethal to dogs in certain doses. Just spend the money to take your dog to the Vet. He's worth it.

Human painkillers are rarely prescribed for dogs (never ibuprofen, which causes organ failure). You should not give ANY medication to your dog that has not been approved by a qualified vet. If you think your dog is in pain, make an appointment. Only a vet will know when to prescribe medication and which kinds are safe in what dose.

Hi, please check with a vet but normally half of a Baby Tylenol is an acceptable treatment for animals. Baby Aspirin can be substituted also. If it is for digestive problems I would consult a vet before anything.
