RECALL ALERT: Phenobarbital Pet Seizure Medication Recalled Due to Serious Labeling Error - The Dogington Post

"Certain bottles of the anti-convulsant, anti-seizure medication, Phenobarbital, manufactured by C.O. Truxton, Inc., are being recalled after bottles containing 30mg tablets were mislabeled as 15mg, posing a serious risk of overdose to cats and dogs taking the prescribed medication.

This mislabeled product could expose the consumer or their pet(s) to potential overdosing that can cause severe intoxication which may lead to cardiogenic shock, renal failure, coma or death."

@ginny not sure if your kitty takes this or not, but I thought of you when I saw this.

Thank you for this important recall message. Our dog was on phenobarbital at one time and I would have been devastated if this happened.
