Which drugs should be avoided in cats?
Many drugs that are safe in people or dogs can be extremely toxic to your cat; dosages are often very different, and cats have metabolic differences that make many common drugs very dangerous to them. Simple Aspirin and Acetamenophen, for example, can be fatal to cats Under dosing drugs, such as antibiotics, can lead to an ordinary infection becoming resistant to treatment. There, please DO NOT administer any drug or medication to your cat without the specific instruction from your veterinarian.
ACETAMINOPHEN AND PHENACETIN
ANTIHISTAMINES AND DECONGESTANTS (PSEUDOEPHIDRINE, CONTACT, BENADRYL, CHLOR-TRIMATON, etc.)
ASPIRIN (Acetylsalicyclic acid)
NON STEROIDAL ANTI INFLAMMATORY DRUGS (Ibuprofen, phenylbutazone, naproxen, indomethacin, piroxicam).
DEWORMERS SHOULD BE USED WITH CAUTION - Drontal and Drontal plus are safe dewormers for cats
