My dog bit into my son eczema creamJA:...

Hello and welcome to Just Answer! My name is***** and I am happy to help you with your question. My job here is to determine whether or not diagnostic tests need to be run or if we can manage things at home. I will do my best to sort things out for you and give you my professional advice based on the history and signs.

I am happy to help you with this question. I understand how important an answer is to your question, so I will work on this for you until it is resolved. Do you happen to know approximately how many minutes ago this happened?

Have you observed any nausea signs such as excessive lip licking, drooling, or swallowing multiple times?

Thank you.

About how much does Bear weigh?

Thank you.

This will be OK regarding any serious toxicity concerns. The amount swallowed can cause Bear to have an upset stomach as seen by vomiting, loss of appetite, or diarrhea, but it is not toxic and will not cause any problems of internal organ injury. Therefore, this is not an emergency and no immediate treatments are required. It is recommended to monitor for signs of vomiting and nausea such as excessive lip licking, drooling, or multiple attempts to swallow. Nausea is usually self-limiting and does not typically require treatment, but you may give an over-the-counter antacid such as 2.5 mg of famotidine (i.e. Pepcid AC) or omeprazole (i.e. Prilosec) if needed. If no signs are seen after 6 to 8 hours, then no further monitoring is necessary.

You are most welcome. I hope I have given you a satisfactory answer. If you have any follow up questions, please reply here and I will be happy to assist you.

It is my pleasure. I am happy to help.
