My dog ate 100mg ibuprofen and is throwing up, what should I do?

Question

My dog ate 100mg ibuprofen and has vomited twice. Pet's info: Dog | Jack Russell Terrier | Male | neutered | 5 years and 7 months old | 17 lbs

Dr. Strydom, DVM · Accepted Answer

This is an overdose and I'm really concerned since he is already showing clinical signs. Ibuprofen can be given to dogs but it has a very narrow dosing range and safety margin. The top end of a dose for a 17# dog would be 68mg. Frank needs to get to a vet as soon as possible.
