    Amphetamine intoxication in dogs presents with symptoms like agitation and hyperthermia, mimicking other poisonings. Laboratory analysis of stomach contents or urine can identify the drug using ultraviolet spectrophotometry.

    Area of Science:

    • Veterinary Toxicology
    • Canine Pharmacology

    Background:

    • Amphetamine intoxication is a recognized concern in veterinary medicine.
    • Clinical signs can be non-specific and overlap with other toxicities.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To characterize the clinical presentation of amphetamine intoxication in dogs.
    • To describe a method for identifying amphetamine in canine samples.

    Main Methods:

    • Case review of dogs presenting with suspected amphetamine intoxication.
    • Analysis of stomach contents and urine using ultraviolet spectrophotometry.

    Main Results:

    • Common clinical signs included excitement, agitation, hyperthermia, and seizures.
    • Extraction procedures allowed for drug identification via spectrophotometry.
