Is Bach Rescue Remedy Pastilles with xylitol safe for my dog to eat?

Hi, It is hard to say without more specific information about the dose , concentration of the ingested xylitol. In general a dose of 50 milligrams (mg) of xylitol per pound of body weight (which is 100mg/kg) considered toxic. Xylitol will cause rapid release of insulin which causes a rapid and profound decrease in the level of blood sugar (hypoglycemia), an effect that occurs within 10-60 minutes of eating the xylitol. Untreated, this hypoglycemia can be life-threatening. Signs of hypoglycemia may include: vomiting, weakness, lack of coordination, difficulty walking or standing, lethargy, tremors, seizures and coma. If your dog ate toxic amount take him to the vet ASAP, if not yet showing signs induction of vomiting may be done and if there are signs he will need immediate treatment. If you'd like you can post the question again with the amount in the tablet. With melatonin there are some conditions where it is given to dogs again at the right dose. again more information about the dose is crucial here. I also have no information about your dog body weight but small dog will normally treated with 1 mg tablet and medium dog 1.5mg. Hope that's help and you can post again with information needed : weight of the dog, dosage of xylitol and melatonin ingested or ask for a private consult.

Reggie should be ok. I've looked over the ingredients list myself, and I also cannot find xylitol on the ingredients list. More than likely, you will see some stomach upset in Reggie, such as vomiting or diarrhea. If you do see that, withhold food and feed a bland diet. Withhold food for 12-24 hours, then feed a bland diet of boiled white meat chicken (no bones) and white rice in small amounts several times a day for a couple of days. Then slowly add back in his normal diet.

As long as there is no xylitol, the worst you may see is some minor stomach upset (vomiting or diarrhea). As long as Charlie is behaving normally, you should be fine. Minor stomach upset can typically be managed at home with a short fast followed by a bland diet fed in small, frequent amounts until symptoms resolve. Transition slowly to the regular diet afterwards. Symptoms that should be addressed by your veterinarian may include: persistent or worsening stomach upset, loss of appetite, abdominal pain or lethargy.

The human formulation contains alcohol which most dogs do not like and may be dangerous for very small puppies. Fortunately, there is a glycerin based formula that is specifically for pets, Rescue Remedy for Pets, that is safe to use for puppies.

Hi there. Yes, if the mint contained xylitol, this is very concerning as it only takes a very small amount to be toxic - especially in a small dog. I would recommend looking up the brand name of the mint online to check the ingredient list. If xylitol is listed as an ingredient, you need to take her to the vet immediately for treatment.

Hi, thanks for using Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach! If you have the packaging see if it tells you how many milligrams (mg) of xylitol it contains or you can call the company and ask. Bentley would have had to ingest 2410mg of xylitol for it to be a toxic dose. I doubt that him licking a basically empty container would have enough to harm him. But it isn't wrong to double check. Good luck!

If the Brach's contained xylitol, it would say it on the label. Since the ingredients say sugar, it won't contain xylitol, so they won't get poisoning from this. I would be concerned they may have some stomach upset, such as vomiting or diarrhea. If you see that, a loss of appetite, or lethargy, have them seen by a vet. I hope this helps!
