Google Bard’s answer
If your dog eats the flowers or leaves of a sagebrush, please take the following steps.
- Contact a veterinary hospital immediately. Isotoma is a poisonous plant for dogs, and symptoms of poisoning may appear depending on the amount eaten, body weight, and physical condition. Even if your pet ingested a small amount, contact a veterinarian as soon as possible and follow the veterinarian’s instructions.
- Observe your dog. The time it takes for symptoms of poisoning to appear varies from minutes to hours. If your dog shows any of the following symptoms, take him to the vet right away.
- vomiting
- diarrhea
- convulsions
- difficulty breathing
- consciousness disorder
- Bring in the eaten isotoma. Veterinarians can provide appropriate treatment by understanding the type and amount of isotoma ingested.
Poisoning symptoms caused by accidental ingestion of isotoma are caused by the following two mechanisms.
- The substance “protoanemonin” contained in isotoma irritates the mucous membranes of the digestive tract, causing vomiting and diarrhea.
- A substance called “anemonin” contained in isotoma acts on the nervous system, causing symptoms such as convulsions and difficulty breathing.
Poisoning symptoms caused by accidentally ingesting isotoma can be cured in most cases if treatment is started early. However, severe poisoning can be life-threatening. Therefore, if your dog has eaten isotoma, it is important to contact your veterinarian immediately and receive appropriate treatment.
