Hello Priya. I am sorry you are having this scare. There are many types of medication and they all have different side effects so without more information, it’s impossible to predict how this will affect your puppy. I recommend to post again with the name of the medication, how many your puppy may have eaten and the strength of the medication. We will be watching for your post and will help if we can.

    We need to know the name of the medication your dog may have eaten and how much your dog weighs. Without that information we cannot help you. Please post again with the needed information. Thank you.
