Question

My dog ate cough drops. He ate 2 and the brand is Cepacol and it was 2.6mg what should I do ? Pet's info: Dog | American Pit Bull Terrier | Male | neutered | 8 months and 6 days old

No need to be concerned about this amount being ingested. At much higher doses, this can cause a blood toxicity, but he would probably have to eat much more (30-100x more) than this in order for there to be a concern. I hope that helps and all is well with Wolverine.
