acetaminophen and cats
Acetaminophen & Cats
All should be aware of the toxicity of acetaminophen in cats: A quick Google search revealed that apparently Acetaminophen is very toxic to cats: "Acetaminaphen, the main ingredient of Tylenol and several other non-aspirin pain relievers. It possesses both analgesic and antipyretic effects. The feline toxic dosage is 50-100 mg/kg. One regular-strength tablet (325 mg) may be toxic to cats, and a second could be lethal. One "extra strength" (500 mg) tablet can result in toxicosis." I just learned this the hard way. Scot |
