RESUMO
An 11-year-old, spayed female Dalmatian was presented with suspected acetaminophen toxicosis. The dog was severely depressed. Methemoglobinemia, facial edema, and hemoglobinuria responded to treatment with intravenous fluids, N-acetylcysteine, ascorbic acid, and sodium bicarbonate. There was no clinical evidence of hepatic damage typical of acetaminophen toxicity in the dog.
