Abstract
Non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) are widely used in human and veterinary medicine because of their analgesic, antipyretic and anti-inflammatory properties, however, they are drugs frequently involved in small animal intoxications. Although its use is safe in dogs, there is a risk of promoting renal and gastrointestinal toxicity, and some authors have observed in this species digestive lesions with clinical manifestations that are noteworthy after the use of non-selective COX-2 NSAIDs, such as ketoprofen. Thus, the objective of this work is to report a case of ketoprofen intoxication in dogs.
