Immediate Actions:
- Remove the plant: If any astrantia remains, remove it immediately and dispose of it safely.
- Call a veterinarian: Contact your veterinarian as soon as possible to consult on the situation and determine the best course of action.
Signs and Symptoms to Monitor:
- Vomiting
- Diarrhea
- Abdominal pain
- Lethargy
- Loss of appetite
- Weakness
Treatment Options:
The veterinarian may recommend the following treatments based on the severity of the ingestion and the dog’s symptoms:
- Induced vomiting: This may be done if the ingestion occurred within the past 2 hours and the dog is not showing severe symptoms.
- Activated charcoal: This can help absorb any remaining toxins in the stomach.
- Intravenous fluids: To prevent dehydration and electrolyte imbalances.
- Monitoring: The veterinarian may keep the dog in the clinic for observation and treatment, depending on the severity of the situation.
Prognosis:
The prognosis for dogs who have ingested astrantia depends on several factors, including:
- The amount and type of astrantia ingested
- The dog’s age and health
- The promptness of treatment
With prompt medical attention, most dogs who ingest astrantia recover fully. However, in severe cases, ingestion can lead to kidney or liver failure, which can be fatal.
Prevention:
- Keep astrantia and other poisonous plants out of reach of dogs and children.
- Supervise dogs when they are outside, especially in gardens or areas where poisonous plants may be present.
