Toxicity to pets
Antidepressant ingestions are one of the top accidental poisonings reported in pet animals. Overdoses result in mild to severe gastrointestinal, cardiovascular, and neurological signs dependent upon the dosage ingested and the patients’ health status. Immediate veterinary intervention is often needed following intoxication with antidepressants by dogs and cats.
