Immediate Actions:
- Contact your veterinarian immediately: They can provide professional advice and treatment options.
- Induce vomiting: If possible, induce vomiting within the first 2 hours of ingestion. Do not induce vomiting if the dog is unconscious or if the medication is a time-release capsule.

What is a Tylinthus?
Tylinthus is a brand name for the medication Tylenol, which contains acetaminophen. Acetaminophen is toxic to dogs and can cause severe liver damage.
Symptoms of Acetaminophen Toxicity:
- Vomiting
- Diarrhea
- Lethargy
- Abdominal pain
- Jaundice (yellowing of the skin and gums)
- Difficulty breathing
- Liver failure (if left untreated)
Treatment:
- Antioxidants: N-acetylcysteine (NAC) is an antioxidant that can help protect the liver from acetaminophen damage. Your veterinarian will administer IV NAC or an oral form.
- Supportive care: Intravenous fluids, electrolyte balance, and oxygen therapy may be needed to support the dog's vital organs.
- Liver monitoring: Regular blood tests will be performed to monitor liver function and determine the extent of damage.
Prognosis:
The prognosis for acetaminophen toxicity in dogs depends on the amount ingested, the time of treatment, and the dog's overall health. Early and aggressive treatment significantly improves the chances of a positive outcome.
Additional Notes:
- If you are unsure whether your dog ingested Tylinthus, do not wait to contact your veterinarian.
- Acetaminophen is also found in other over-the-counter medications, including cold and flu remedies. Always check the ingredient list before giving any human medications to your pet.
- Keep all medications out of reach of pets.
