5/21/2007 12:50:31 PM Caller a DVM who stated that a dog ingested at least 0.75 oz (maybe more) of the product 15 minutes ago. Vomiting was induced and bait was seen in emesis. The toxic dose of this product is 18.7g. Advised DVM that we agree with the decontamination performed. Would recommend that you keep him in the hospital for the day and perform the following: multiple dose activated charcoal per day, close monitoring of serum calcium, phosphorus, BUN and creatinine, urinalysis and urine specific gravity. Follow up on 5/21/2007 at 12:55:01 PM from the DVM: The dog had a grand mal seizure and died. Caller wondering if acute neurological symptoms are seen with this product.Acute neurological symptoms are not expected with this toxin. This toxin causes elevated serum calcium and this takes 24-48 hours to develop.
