Event Navigation

Veterinarians are constantly concerned about toxins that can harm their animal patients. This course will cover toxins that cause more severe poisonings in pets, including those that are fast acting, cause significant or life-threatening clinical signs, or are complicated to manage. Agents discussed will include ethylene glycol, baclofen, cholecalciferol, 5-fluoruracil, 5-HTP, and amlodipine. Mechanisms of toxicity, clinical signs, diagnosis, and treatment will be discussed.

Takeaways

How to diagnose and treat ethylene glycol toxicosis in dogs and cats, and the differences between the two species.
How to manage the complications from baclofen in dogs and cats.
How to institute initial treatment as well as potentials for long-term treatment in dogs and cats exposed to cholecalciferol.
How to stabilize and treat 5-FU and 5-HTP exposures in dogs and cats.
