He should be fine if he ate just one. Just monitor him closely for the next couple days for any abnormal symptoms. If any are noticed then he should see a vet ASAP. This NSAID ingredient is a derivative of aspirin but not as problematic. He should be fine but not all animals react the same to medications.
