No, you should never give hydrocodone with APAP to dogs. If you do you run the risk of damage to kidneys, liver and the gastrointestinal tract. Always check with your veterinarian before giving any medication to your animal.

It is not recommended to give Hydrocodone with APAP to your dog. Contact your veterinarian for a diagnosis and they may prescribe Hydrocodone if needed. This will not include APAP. Giving your dog any medication without contacting your veterinarian can be very harmful or even fatal to your pet.

Hydrocodone with APAP is toxic to dogs. Hydrocodone alone can be given to dogs for kennel cough. Any asprin, tylenol, or other medicines containing asprin causes acetolysis in the dogs which is fatal.

You can give that to your dog if they look like they are in any pain. But I would talk to a professional like a vet to indicate if you should give that or they might just prescribe something better.

Vets usually priscribe hydrocodone for dogs if they have caugh. But these are pure hydeocodone and do not contain APAP and giving hydrocodone with APAP could be dangerous. Before giving hydrocodone to your dog better to consult the vet on what dosage to be given.
