If you suspect your dog has eaten a lily, it is crucial to act immediately as it can be life-threatening.
Steps to Take:
- Call a Veterinarian or Animal Poison Control Center Immediately: Contact your veterinarian or the ASPCA Animal Poison Control Center (888-426-4435) for immediate assistance and instructions.
- Determine the Type of Lily: Identify the type of lily involved, if possible. True lilies (Genus Lilium) are highly toxic to dogs, while other plants commonly called lilies (e.g., daylilies, peace lilies) are generally not as dangerous.
- Do Not Induce Vomiting: Inducing vomiting in dogs who have ingested toxic substances can worsen the situation.
- Activated Charcoal: The veterinarian may recommend giving your dog activated charcoal to absorb the toxin.
- Hospitalization: In severe cases, your dog may require hospitalization for intensive monitoring, intravenous fluids, and other supportive care.
Signs and Symptoms:
Symptoms of lily poisoning in dogs can develop within 12-72 hours of ingestion and include:
- Vomiting
- Diarrhea
- Abdominal pain
- Lethargy
- Loss of appetite
- Drooling
- Increased thirst
- Tremors
- Seizures
- Kidney failure (acute tubular necrosis)
Treatment:
The specific treatment for lily poisoning will depend on the severity of ingestion and the type of lily involved. It may include:
- Inducing vomiting if recommended by a veterinarian
- Giving activated charcoal
- Intravenous fluids to support kidney function
- Monitoring kidney function and electrolytes
- Anti-nausea and anti-diarrhea medications
- Hemodialysis in severe cases
Prognosis:
The prognosis for dogs who have eaten lilies depends on the amount and type of lily ingested, as well as the timing of intervention. Early detection and treatment can improve the chances of survival. However, kidney failure can be irreversible and lead to serious complications.
