#I think I may have accidentally overdosed on advil..

[50000bears]

Ughh I have so much to do today but I suddenly got really sick 5 minutes before leaving the house

[thenamesblurrito]

boy oh boy uhhh. so you’re asking someone who doesn’t know anything about drugs beyond memes about ketamine and the phrase “acid trip”, and doesn’t understand the difference between advil, aspirin, and tylenol, AND doesn’t know anything about computing or mechanics, so go easy on me as i completely make stuff up. i originally screenshot this to put it in an ask dump but then it got too long so it’s in its own post

there are far more digital drugs than physical ones. the physical ones are likely to be fuel additives to affect the performance of the frame, like an upper for self repair systems or temporary nitro boosts that can give you a burst of speed and energy but also might burn out your engine. cy-gars, cy-garettes, and other aerosol inhalants like what Kup and Ravage smoke do actually have an affect on sensory perception, hijacking chemoreception in the mouth and vents. some numb the neurocircuits and deaden senses and can be medicinally used for pain relief, some wake you up, and some are mildly hallucinogenic in that they can mess with the neurocircuitry they come in contact with, and they can end up addictive for some. none of these are powerful enough to actually get someone properly high or in an altered state, because even cycling aerosols throughout the vents of one’s entire frame is still not enough contact and absorption to really affect the processor. otherwise, there isn’t a lot of physically consumed/injected/applied material that will make you feel wonky or something? it’s almost always about changing or enhancing physical performance, medicinally or otherwise

many drugs are digital files uploaded through medical interfacing, either by a medical professional or in a self-contained USB-stick type device often called a holochip or simultronic stick, comparable to an inhaler or pill bottle or injection that can be easily self applied on the regular. all of these are temporary scripts that run their course and then are naturally cleared from the nervous system. it’s incredibly difficult if not outright impossible to permanently change someone’s hardcoding, especially not in the processor itself. medical drugs like mood stabilizers for mental health issues, inoculations, painkillers, programs to prevent rejection of cloned transplants or kibble additions, immune system conditions or allergy pills, and other types are all well regulated, thoroughly tested in AI simulations, and updated to prevent bugs or accidental immunity. not every program can run on every mech, as everyone’s processor and frame is different. especially when considering the differences in alt mode and kibble, it’s incredibly important for medics to identify and test which drugs will actually run on the operating system of a mech’s nervous circuitry

obviously all of those can be altered, heightened, mixed with physical substances, or just overdosed to cause an altered state of mind or physicality that may be addictive and/or detrimental for the mech in question. recreational drugs or performance enhancers are typically called stimms, circuitjacks, or circuit boosters/speeders. examples include syk and nucleon. bootleg programs are extremely dangerous but not exactly uncommon among addicted communities. most drug addicts have dysphoria of some kind, or are actively self-medicating to escape or ignore something wrong in their lives. sometimes just uploading the wrong program to the wrong frame would act as a narcotic, eg a script coded for mecha with flightframe kibble running on a wheeled grounder frame might get trippy and cause phantom limb sensations... assuming it wasn’t just crippling or lethal. it would be unfair to say that recreational drug usage is universally evil or dangerous or what have you, but i think there’s probably a slightly higher risk factor for mecha than humans? their version of drugs does literally temporarily take over and/or their own processing for awhile. if something goes wrong, the program might not end, might corrupt its file, might replicate or overwrite natural coding on accident, might crash the system, or might eat up too much memory or processing space. a fatal computer error, if you would. (i’m absolutely aware of irl bad reactions to drugs, that’s partially what this is based on, i’m not trying to pretend humans aren’t in danger from irresponsible use or something)

the really bad drugs would just straight up be malware. viruses aren’t uncommon and often act like the flu, and self-replicating programs can be a problem if the processor can’t clear its cache fast enough to get rid of them. but truly malicious viruses actively hijack the frame or delete swathes of code or act invisibly while taking up more and more storage space. nothing is capable of actually mind controlling a mech or what have you, but they can mess with the processor and divorce the function and sensory suites of the frame from conscious control. take it too far, and energon circulation might get messed up, self repair might go on the fritz, cooling might go off and freeze or overheat the frame, neurocircuitry might not have the bandwidth to actually run the virus and start causing fatal lag, or the spark might start guttering from working so hard to support such overworked activity from the viruses

Did Your Dog Eat Human Medication? Expert Advice on What to Do

However, we appreciate that you like the article and would love it if you continued sharing just the first paragraph of an article, then linking out to the rest of the piece on Dogster.com.

I didn’t know if I was looking at a Cocker Spaniel or a miniature Cujo. Gracie, a 3-year-old sweetie I’d known since puppyhood, was a hot mess of mangled fur, dripping drool and wild eyes. At that moment, she was about as sweet as a jalapeño pepper.

“I turned my back for a second, and she swiped my allergy medication off the counter. I didn’t think it would hurt her. Then she started acting like this a couple hours later. Can you help her?” I scanned the torn package label as Gracie’s mom sobbed her story. I’d seen this before.

“Sudafed contains pseudoephedrine, an antihistamine that can be poisonous to dogs at high doses. Fortunately, you caught her quickly, and it appears she only ate two caplets. That dosage may certainly make her sick, but I think we can treat her.”

The dangers of human medications

Accidental ingestion of human prescription medications leads the list of animal poisonings reported to the Animal Poison Control Center (APCC). Nearly 35,000 cases were logged in 2017, most involving pain relievers, antidepressants and heart drugs.

Runner-up was over-the-counter (OTC) medications including anti-inflammatory meds such as aspirin, acetaminophen (Tylenol), ibuprofen (Advil) or naproxen (Aleve), antihistamines (cases such as Gracie are astonishingly common), vitamins and supplements. Rounding out the top five pet poisons are foods (especially grapes, raisins, alcohol and xylitol-sweetened food) and veterinary drugs and products. Chocolate, cleaning agents (laundry pods are popping up more frequently), insecticides, rat poison, plants and garden products complete the top 10.

Veterinarians also see dogs sickened by topical medications, including hormone replacement therapies so potent that innocently petting a dog after applying can pose a problem. I’ve also seen several cases of dogs chewing (or swallowing) asthma inhalers containing albuterol, resulting in dangerous heart rate, lethargy and agitation.

I once saw a dog who ate nearly half a bottle of Adderall, an ADHD treatment, causing a series of mild seizures and tremors. The owners reported their child had inadvertently left the prescription on the bathroom counter, snapped up in an instant by their furry household counter surfer.

Nutritional supplements and herbal remedies are also common causes of medicine cabinet catastrophes. I’m especially concerned about vitamin D, which when consumed in large amounts can cause elevated calcium and phosphorus levels and kidney failure. Iron supplements can trigger severe vomiting and bloody diarrhea. Herbal supplements containing garlic, gingko, ginseng and ephedra (Ma Huang) should be kept away from dogs.

Generally speaking, if your canine scarfs any supplement, check with your veterinarian immediately.

Gracie’s treatment

Gracie was rushed to the treatment ward and given activated charcoal and started on intravenous fluids. The charcoal would hopefully block continued absorption.

Many human medications are extended-release formulations, such as Sudafed 24-hour, meaning Gracie was at risk for a considerable time after ingestion. Inducing vomiting wouldn’t help because Gracie had eaten the pills hours earlier. I gave her a small amount of intravenous acepromazine to ease her agitation and cyproheptadine to prevent a potential pseudoephedrine overdose side effect called serotonin syndrome.

Gracie recovered from her medicine cabinet catastrophe, although her mom was worried sick for the next week. Our dogs depend on us to be good stewards of their health and protect them from risks they can’t comprehend. Accidents can happen in the flash of your dog’s tongue; take this opportunity to dog-proof your medications.

Medication safety tips

While it’s impossible to completely prevent a dog from accidentally ingesting a medication, here are some sensible precautions for any home:

Never leave any medications on low countertops or tables where a curious canine could access them. Better yet, take medications in a room your dog does not have access to. Keep all medication and supplement bottles securely closed with childproof caps. If you spill a liquid or topical medicine, immediately and thoroughly clean it up. If you spill your pills, pick them up right away and count them. I once had a dog suck at least three sleeping pills from under a bathroom cabinet after an owner failed to verify she’d picked them all up. That was one sleepy Shepherd. Never give your dog or cat any kind of medication or start a supplement without first talking with your veterinarian.
