Giving Your Dog Aspirin: Safety Tips for Pet Parents

Giving Your Dog Aspirin: Safety Tips for Pet Parents

At Tevra Brands, we know how much you care about your furry family members. When your dog is in pain—whether from arthritis, injury, or surgery—it's natural to want to offer relief. That’s why we’ve developed a specially formulated aspirin for dogs, designed to be safe and effective when used correctly.

But like any medication, dog aspirin must be given with care. Here’s what every pet owner should know before giving their dog aspirin.

 

Why Use Tevra’s Aspirin for Dogs?

Unlike human aspirin, Tevra’s aspirin is dosed specifically for dogs and flavored to be more palatable. Our formulation considers the unique metabolism and sensitivities of dogs, reducing the risk of gastrointestinal upset or overdose that can happen with human meds.

 

Read the Label—Every Time

Dosing accuracy is critical. Always follow the label instructions carefully. Dog size, weight, and individual health needs determine the proper dosage. Giving too much—accidentally or out of eagerness to help—can cause serious side effects like vomiting, ulcers, or internal bleeding.

Pro Tip: We recommend weighing your dog before starting a new medication, even if it’s one you’ve used before. Weight changes over time can impact the correct dose.

 

Keep It Out of Reach: For Pets and Kids

Our canine aspirin may taste like a treat to your dog—but it’s still medicine. To avoid accidental ingestion:

  • Store the bottle in a secure cabinet well above your dog’s reach.
  • Use child-proof containers, especially if you have young children at home.
  • After each use, tighten the cap securely and return it to its safe storage spot.

Dogs are notorious for finding bottles and chewing through them, and children may mistake flavored pills for candy. Keeping medications secure protects the whole family.

 

Watch for Side Effects

Most dogs tolerate Tevra’s aspirin well when dosed properly. However, contact your vet if you notice:

  • Vomiting or diarrhea (especially with blood)
  • Loss of appetite
  • Lethargy or unusual behavior
  • Signs of stomach discomfort

If your dog is on other medications or has an underlying condition (like kidney or liver disease), consult your veterinarian before starting aspirin.

Tevra Brands’ aspirin for dogs offers a convenient way to relieve your dog’s pain safely—when used responsibly. Always follow the dosing guide, watch for side effects, and store the medication safely away from curious noses and fingers.

With the right precautions, you can help your dog feel better while keeping them (and your family) safe.
