See up there near the top where it says "Take 1 capsule by mouth every

morning"?

I was dog sitting for a buddy of mine once, and ended up giving the dog a triple dose of its medication partially because of what I'd call less than ideal label design and instructions.

My buddy left instructions to give the dog 300 mg of its meds. So, I found the bottle with the correct name of the medication, it said 100 mg pills, so I gave the dog three pills.

The problem is, the label actually said something like "This medication is not to be given with

100 mg pills".

Because the bottle was super skinny, it meant that the top line wasn't even fully visible without turning the bottle to read it, plus there was so much space between the top line and the bottom one that they otherwise looked unrelated. Strangely, the actual dose of 300 mg was not like in the picture above, it was in a tiny non-bold font and much less conspicuous than the larger bolder font used for the directions so I didn't even notice it until I went back later and searched for it.

Granted, it didn't help that I was not aware that this dog had 2 different prescriptions for two different strengths, which would have hopefully prompted more scrutiny on my part if I'd known because I probably wouldn't have just assumed the first bottle I grabbed with the correct name on it was the right one to give her.

The good news is, the vet said that it wasn't anything medically significant and that the dog would probably just be a little sleepier than normal for the next several hours. And she was, but otherwise perfectly okay.
