Guide to Veterinary Drugs for Human Consumption, Post-SHTF - Prepper1 - 27 January 2013

Has anyone come across a list of human meds that are safe for pets? If such a thing exists

Just out of interest, Doxycycline is prescribed as a malaria prophylactic by travel clinics. I had some last time I went to Botswana. So, if you want to stockpile some Doxycycline, feign a trip to the tropics and visit your local travel clinic.

I knew it was an antibiotic, but I didn't realise it could be substituted so readily for penicillin. Interesting point about the expiry dates though.

I think that most vets would be dead against the idea,... but many human medication can be used in smaller quantities,... but to be safe I would either google it, or visit a dog forum and ask, I know the question has come up before on a German Shepherd forum I used to visit, but I honestly cant remember the answers
