Levamisole toxicosis in a dog.
A single oral dose of levamisole hydrochloride given at the rate of 12 mg/kg was believed responsible for bradycardia, tachypnea, hypothermia, cerebrocortical depression, and diarrhea in a dog. Supportive treatment and symptomatic treatment for the bradycardia were required for 4 days. In addition to these previously reported abnormalities associated with levamisole toxicosis, cerebrocortical depression and multiple foci of irritation were characterized by electroencephalography.
