Activated Charcoal Syringe (30 mL)

I've been using USA-made PetVet products for years and have been happy with them. I got this activated charcoal syringe to keep in my pet first aid kit. If one of my dogs ingests something poisonous and activated charcoal is indicated, I may possibly save my dog's life. I would be devastated if something happened to them and this is worth keeping for peace of mind.It has a long shelf life. I received it 9/2026 and it expires 6/2028.I wish is cost less than $34.99 so more people would be willing to keep it at home. It's pre-mixed so I don't have to worry about measurements during an emergency. It's beef-flavored so it's more likely my dogs will swallow it.Reviewing: PetVet Medic Activated Charcoal for Dogs & Cats, Veterinarian-Developed Oral Gel, 30 mL Prefilled Syringe, Beef Flavor, Liquid Charcoal for Pet Emergency Preparedness, Made in USA.

Activated Charcoal for Cats & Dogs, 30 ml / Gel, Beef Flavored / ASIN: B0H4HYV2YW / $35... I'd call a pet poison helpline.There are plenty, and you should have one in your contacts. And I know they'll quickly ask if I have activated charcoal on hand -- I do, for this and other purposes, but it's a powder form in a large crinkly mylar bag that makes an absolute disaster of a mess that would make a chimney sweep blush. A credit to PETVET PRODUCTS for making me aware of this quick, convenient, clean and presumably more tasty option delivered in a prefilled syringe. You can't get any simpler than that and with accidental poisoning of pets, time is of even greater essence given their smaller body weights and differing metabolisms.Instructions and dosing are clearly printed on both the box and syringe. The dose is easily remembered at 1 ml per pound of body weight. A scale on the plunger will be your guide. One syringe can administer an animal weighing up to 30 pounds. Keep that in mind if you have a 100 pound Burnese Mountain Dog bumbling around your home. For smaller animals, you may think you'll have 2-3 doses. Sure, if you have 2-3 cats that ingested the same poison. But some quick research will show you that multiple dosing of activated charcoal is rare and only in certain cases with specific matters. Also, charcoal does not work for all poisons. So yes, this is a great aide to have in your pets FAK but instead of just tossing it in a drawer, spend a few minutes learning what it can and can't do. And you'll still want to call poison control -- if you're not already underway to the vet or nearest animal hospital.I'm grateful to have this product now and will recommend it to friends and family. Thank you PETVET for bringing it to my attention!//

Looks very similar to another brand I bought, which does the same thing, and it seems legitimate. Unfortunately, it is hard to rate this because this is only meant to be used in an emergency, so I have not been able to actually use it yet. I carry around with me in my car in case my dog eats something bad.

Absolute necessity for pet parents! Thankfully, I have not had to use this product. However, last month I took my dog to the ER after he ate a bunch of chocolate and it was a 600 dollar bill!The value of this product is great because it can save you hundreds of dollars and save your pet's life in an emergency. Its also a pretty large tube.I highly recommend this product for any pet parents, especially if you have a curious, mischievous, or greedy pup. You can't always prevent your pet from eating things they shouldn't, but you can be prepared for it!The syringe is quite large, so it can be used for large and small dogs. It is also chicken flavored, to make it more enticing for your dog. Be sure to check the dosage and consult your vet before use. There are instructions on the box and the bottle that I find helpful to safely use the product.

I bought this primarily for my pet first-aid supplies. I have a 65 lb dog, but I also occasionally babysit my neighbor’s pup, who has a talent for getting into things he shouldn’t. I wanted to have activated charcoal available in case a veterinarian or poison-control professional ever instructed me to use it.I particularly like that it’s already prepared in a measured oral syringe. In an emergency, the last thing I’d want to do is start measuring powders or trying to mix something while also dealing with a dog who may have eaten something dangerous. The syringe is clearly marked and compact enough to keep with the rest of my pet emergency supplies.Hopefully I’ll never have to find out how well it works. I certainly wouldn’t administer activated charcoal without veterinary guidance but I feel better having it available when I’m responsible for someone else’s mischievous pup.
