My dog ate 5mg enalapril. Is my 55lb dog okay after several hours?

Updated On September 23rd, 2025

Pet's info: Dog | Greyhound | Male | neutered | 55 lbs

I dropped a 5 mg enalapril on the floor at 12:00PM today and my dog ate it before I could stop him. It is now 5:30PM and he has been fine all day, should I be concerned?

Hello. 5 mg was a very small dose of enalapril ( which we do use regularly in dogs ) for a dog that weighs 55 pounds. Abby will be perfectly fine & you have nothing to worry about. Thanks for using Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach.
