I can't find any specific information except that it can be toxic. How long ago did Noodles ingest the lubricant?

I found this website with the ingredients https://glennsaid.com/yeti-zipper-lubricant-alternatives/

I can't find very much information on it either. The window to induce vomiting has closed but do you have any activated charcoal?

Customer
No but I can get it

Can I use this option?

Yes, that is perfect. How much does Noodles weigh?

Customer
50pounds

Ok, I recommend giving Noodles 8 260 mg capsules just once. You can lightly coat each capsule with peanut butter to make it easier to give them. Activated charcoal is completely nontoxic and will bind to any toxin and carry it out of Noodles body with his poop. It is known as the universal antidote

Customer
Thank you. I’ll get it right now
Customer
What symptoms should I be in the watch for?

The charcoal will turn his stool into a black, gooey blob but it does not cause diarrhea. It does seem to make them sleepy after they take it but I think that is ok as we heal when we sleep. Please do not feed her until two hours after giving the charcoal. If you feed them, the charcoal binds to the food and not the toxin. Activated charcoal can not hurt it can only help.

Customer
Perfect. He had his dinner at 7pm. His next meal will be tomorrow at 8am
Customer
He had his dinner at 7pm his next meal is not until tomorrow 7am

That is perfect. I think the ingredients of the Yeti lube are proprietary as that site just lists alternatives to using the Yeti lube, but that's ok as it won't hurt Noodles to take the activated charcoal.

Customer
Should I worry if he vomits?

No, it is rare, but sometimes they do vomit a little after taking the charcoal, but the majority stays in the stomach. That is usually when we've induced vomiting using peroxide before giving the charcoal.

Customer
Got it. So far he looks very energized. My husband is getting the charcoal, I’ll give it to him as soon as he gets home

Sounds good, thanks for reaching out tonight, take good care :)

Customer
Thanks. You too!
