Immediate Actions:

Contact your veterinarian urgently: Inform them about the ingestion and the plant species. They will provide specific guidance and may recommend treatment.

Induce vomiting: Under the instruction of your veterinarian, consider administering a vomiting agent (e.g., hydrogen peroxide) to remove any remaining plant material.
-
Monitor symptoms: Observe your dog closely for any signs of discomfort or distress.
Potential Symptoms:
Ingestion of Annona Reishi can cause a range of symptoms, including:
- Vomiting
- Diarrhea
- Lethargy
- Loss of appetite
- Abdominal pain
- Tremors
- Seizures
- Liver damage
Treatment:
Treatment will depend on the severity of the symptoms and the amount ingested. Your veterinarian may administer:
- Fluids: To prevent dehydration caused by vomiting and diarrhea.
- Anti-diarrheal medication: To control digestive upset.
- Antibiotics: To prevent bacterial infections associated with vomiting and diarrhea.
- Liver protectants: If liver damage is suspected.
- Sedatives: To manage seizures or tremors.
Prognosis:
The prognosis depends on several factors, including:
- The amount ingested
- The size and health status of the dog
- Promptness of treatment
With timely intervention and appropriate treatment, most dogs recover fully. However, in severe cases, liver damage or other complications may lead to a poor prognosis.
Additional Information:
- Annona Reishi (Annona squamosa) is also known as Sugar Apple or Custard Apple.
- All parts of the plant, including the fruit, seeds, and leaves, are potentially toxic to dogs.
- The toxic agents in the plant are called annonacins, which can cause liver damage and neurological effects.
- Dogs are particularly susceptible to the neurotoxic effects of annonacins due to their smaller size and different enzyme systems.
Caution:
- Never attempt to treat your dog’s illness on your own without consulting a veterinarian.
- If you suspect your dog has ingested any toxic plant, seek immediate professional attention.
