Immediate Actions:
- Call your veterinarian immediately: They will provide guidance and may recommend bringing your dog to the clinic for further assessment.
- Induce vomiting (if advised by your veterinarian): Peroxide solution (3%) can be given orally to induce vomiting.
- Activated charcoal: This can be administered orally to absorb toxins.
Further Care:
- Monitor your dog: Watch for signs of toxicity, such as vomiting, diarrhea, lethargy, difficulty breathing, or seizures.
- Restrict food and water: Do not give your dog food or water for 24 hours, or as directed by your veterinarian. This will help prevent dehydration and reduce further toxin absorption.
- Provide a quiet and comfortable environment: Keep your dog calm and comfortable while they recover.
- Follow your veterinarian’s instructions: Continue any medications or treatments prescribed by your veterinarian.
Information about Matricaria:
Matricaria, also known as German chamomile, is a plant that contains several potentially toxic compounds, including azulenes, volatile oils, and flavonoids. Ingestion of large quantities can cause the following symptoms in dogs:
- Gastrointestinal upset (vomiting, diarrhea)
- Neurological effects (lethargy, seizures)
- Respiratory distress
- Hepatotoxicity (liver damage)
- Abortion in pregnant dogs
Important Notes:
- Do not attempt to induce vomiting if your dog shows any signs of seizures or trouble breathing.
- Activated charcoal should not be given if your dog has already vomited.
- The toxicity of matricaria can vary depending on the amount ingested and the individual dog’s susceptibility.
- Early intervention is crucial for the best possible outcome.
