Conditions that activate the brain's emetic centre lead to vomiting. When a poison or toxin is consumed, vomiting can occasionally be useful, but it can also be dangerous to a sick or weak animal that is prone to get dehydrated. Digestive Drugs that cause vomiting should never be administered to animals unless instructed to do so by a veterinarian or an expert in animal poison management because not all animals have the ability to vomit.
Emetic medications are used to induce vomiting and are typically used in dire circumstances after a pet consumes a specific poison. Normally, they remove 80% or so of the stomach's contents. Ipecac syrup is a well-known over-the-counter remedy that makes you throw up.
Vomiting can be stopped using antiemetic medications. Vomiting frequently wears one out physically and can lead to aspiration pneumonia, acid-base and electrolyte imbalances, and dehydration. Once a diagnosis has been made, antiemetic medications are used to manage severe vomiting, to prevent motion sickness, and to manage vomiting brought on by radiation and chemotherapy.
