  1. Call your veterinarian immediately. Your veterinarian will be able to advise you on the best course of action for your dog.
  2. Bring a sample of the plant to your veterinarian. This will help your veterinarian to confirm that your dog has eaten Fujibakama.

  3. Monitor your dog closely for any symptoms of toxicity. Symptoms of Fujibakama toxicity in dogs can include:

    • Vomiting
    • Diarrhea
    • Abdominal pain

Treatment for Fujibakama toxicity in dogs will depend on the severity of the symptoms. Treatment may include:

  • Intravenous fluids to help flush the toxins from your dog’s body
