What are the signs of xylitol toxicity?
Vomiting is one of the first signs and usually begins within 30 minutes after ingestion, but may persist for more than 12 hours. Common signs of hypoglycemia include weakness, staggering, lethargy, collapsing and seizures. With liver failure your dog may have vomiting, anorexia, lethargy, and decreased blood clotting times. These symptoms usually take 8-12 hours to start, but may not develop up to 24-48 hours after ingesting. Many of the dogs that experience liver failure do not show signs of low blood sugar first.
