Overdose Rimadyl

Overdose Rimadyl

My dog took aproximately 1000mg of Rimadyl.  We could not induce vomiting by admin 40ml H202 and 6mg apomorphine intraconjunctiva.  She has been on IV fluids for aprox 24hours.  How much longer would you continue iv fluids and how often would you check her liver/kidney function afterwards...every week for a month or a year?  Any other advice regarding diet or things to avoid

How are her liver values right now?  How is she acting?  I would check her liver values now, just before she leaves the hospital, at one week, than weekly until the liver values return to normal.  I would place her on Milk Thistle, Hepatic Support, Denosyl or other SAM-E supplement,  Alpha Lipoic Acid, and Choline and Inositol supplementation.  If her liver values have already returned to normal than recheck as often as you like.  If normal, than re-check in one month.  I would also check a CBC, because overdosing NSAIDS can cause GI ulceration.
