Check Lisinopril for your dog
Enter your dog's details for a straight answer sized to them.
Why Lisinopril needs caution
Lisinopril overdose can lower blood pressure and reduce kidney perfusion. Dogs with kidney disease, dehydration, or other heart medicines may be more vulnerable.
Signs to watch for
Vomiting, weakness, pale gums, lethargy, fast or slow heartbeat, collapse
What to do next
Keep the bottle or packaging, count what may be missing, and call for case-specific guidance even if your dog looks normal.
Many limited ACE-inhibitor exposures are less severe than beta-blocker or calcium-channel-blocker exposures, but the count, strength, weight, and health history still matter.
Can I treat this at home?
Do not induce vomiting or give food, charcoal, or another medicine unless a veterinarian or poison specialist directs you.
When should I call the vet?
Call your veterinarian or an animal poison control center now with the product strength, amount missing, time, and your dog's weight.
