It's safe to give Danny this medication. Because it is used topically in his mouth, it is expected that some of it may be swallowed during treatment and the vet wouldn't prescribe it if it could cause seizures from ingestion. I would use this medication as prescribe by your vet, Danny will be ok :-)
