What if my dog missed a Keppra dose? Can I give more for seizures?

Updated On September 23rd, 2025

Pet's info: Dog | Mixed Breed | Male | neutered | 16 lbs

Not sure if my min pin took his full keppra dose or other dog, a golden, ate it. Not worried about the golden eating it ( he is 85 lbs vs the 16 lb dog who needs the meds). The min pin ate the 1/4 tab but not sure of 1/2. I don’t want him to seizure.

Hi, thanks for using Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach! It is fine to give him the 1/2 tablet even if he could have gotten it. Getting an extra half won’t hurt him. I wouldn’t want him to seizure either. Have a good night!
