Title: Ibuprofen toxicosis in a dog. Author: Spyridakis LK, Bacia JJ, Barsanti JA, Brown SA. Journal: J Am Vet Med Assoc; 1986 Oct 15; 189(8):918-9. PubMed ID: 3771364. Abstract: Acute renal failure, vomiting, and melena developed in a 10-month-old dog after ingestion of ten 600-mg tablets of ibuprofen. After 5 days of IV fluid therapy, clinical signs resolved and azotemia decreased. With increased availability of nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs, similar complications may become more common in veterinary practice. If acute renal failure should develop, the prognosis for recovery is good, with rapid institution of appropriate therapy. However, renal dysfunction may not be completely reversed.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
