Hey all, this just happened like 10 mins ago. Was administering some liquid gabapentin through a syringe, and she struggled a bit and I shot the liquid a bit too fast. She coughed a bit afterwards, not awfully but it was the first time I've heard her cough. Maybe did like 8 coughs? Only lasted about 10 seconds. She ate and drank normally afterwards and is playing/active right now.
A lot of articles I'm reading online says medicine aspiration can lead to aspiration pneumonia, is this something that I can wait to call the vet tomorrow when they are open or does this constitute an emergency visit to am ER? Sorry if it's a silly question, I tend to get overly anxious about her health and online results are pretty intense.
