Really.....this could be a possible emergency situation, and you are writing to a forum?  Instead of waiting for a response from us, you need to take action immediately before that drug gets into your cat's body.  CALL THE EMERGENCY VET NOW!!!!  Don't even take a chance.

Since you have a computer, you could do a quick research of HCG and also on how to induce vomiting.

Wow, I don't know, but call your Vet right away and  ask them.  If your Vet is closed, call your nearest Animal ER.  How is kitty acting?
