I am not able to offer phone consultations at this time but would be happy to continue to chat with you here. If you request a phone call, you should be contacted by a different expert and I will no longer be able to chat with you.

I understand that you are concerned because Bertti ingested 50 mg of carprofen. Let me see if I can help.

Has she eaten anything since she ingested the pill?

How long after she ate did she vomit?

The dose range for a dog of her size would be 38 mg twice a day or 76 mg once a day so that wasn't an overdose, but it may have upset her stomach a bit. If you have not fed her for hours since she vomited, you could try a small meal and see how she does with it.

You are more than welcome. Please keep me updated if anything changes. You can reply to this post as it is our private chat, and I will receive a notification and can reply when I am able.

I hope this is helpful. Please let me know if you have ANY other questions. My goal is to give you 100% satisfaction and if you are not yet satisfied, please reply so I can clarify for you.
