I accidentally gave my miniature schnauzer 1 25mg tablet of carprofen instead of 1/2. How dangerous is this for my dog?

    Hello,
    Are you a patient of Jarrettsville vet? I think that you are. If so please don’t give another dose for 24 hours. Also provide a meal if it was taken recently so that food is in the stomach. If there is any vomiting or diarrhea please come in tomorrow at 1245 to see me. I am at the clinic 1-3 tomorrow. If you need anything sooner you can email me or send a private message via our Jvc Facebook page.

    Yes we are Jarrettville vet clients. Dunkin did eat a meal shortly after I gave the pill. He has been laying around resting all day today. He was neutered yesterday. Otherwise he seems fine.

    Ok. Give him a small soft meal (wet food or watered down kibble) in a few hours. And then the same for breakfast tomorrow morning. But skip the am dose of the carprofen. Call me at the clinic while we are open if you need anything.
