About Veterinary Toxicology

GoConqr Original

What the resources cover

This page brings together study material on poisons and the animals they affect. Several flashcard decks work through plants, including Poisonous Plants, Poisonous Plant ID and Houseplants. Others look at body systems, such as Cardiovascular toxicology, Liver Toxins and Neurological Toxicants.

The deck Toxins lists agents such as methiocarb, metaldehyde, ivermectin, paracetamol, lead and bracken fern. The deck Plant and chemical poisonings in cattle starts from the approach to a case of sudden death and the history you need to gather.

Where to start

Begin with Basics of Veterinary Toxicology or the deck Toxicology to get the general ideas. Then move to General management of poisoned pet and first aid for poisons. After that, choose the area you need: small animals, large animals or plants.

Using quizzes and maps together

The mind maps give you the overview. Canine toxicology covers chocolate and theobromine, while Feline toxicology covers permethrin and how it acts as a neurotoxin. Ammunition lead poisoning in raptors follows lead accumulation, symptoms and diagnosis.

Read a map first, then test yourself. The quiz Tox: Rodenticides asks you to match poisons to their modes of action, and explains the wrong answers. Other quizzes include Tox: metals and metalloids, Household Plant Toxicants, Feed related toxicoses and Approach to suspected poisonings. Note the questions you miss, then go back to the matching deck or map.

Where this unit sits

Veterinary Toxicology belongs to the strand Pathology, Microbiology and Disease Control, within Veterinary medicine. It pairs well with any study of disease in animals, since many poisonings look like other illnesses.

Frequently asked questions

Which resource should I open first?

Start with the deck Basics of Veterinary Toxicology or the deck Toxicology for the general ideas. Then try the quiz Approach to suspected poisonings, which shows how a case is worked through. Once that feels familiar, move on to a specific area such as plants, rodenticides or metals.

What do the mind maps cover?

The mind maps cover topics such as canine toxicology, feline toxicology, lead poisoning in raptors, water toxicity, renal toxicants and mineral toxicity. There is also a map on agents that cause CNS stimulation or seizures. They work well as an overview before you take a quiz.

Are there quizzes on plants?

Yes. You can try Household Plant Toxicants, Large Animal Plants 3 and Poisonous Plants of the Week exam, along with other large animal plant quizzes. Flashcard decks such as Poisonous Plant ID and Houseplants help you learn the plants before you test yourself.

Are the resources free, and who made them?

Every resource listed here is free to open, study and take, with no account needed. They were made by GoConqr users, not by GoConqr itself. A free account also saves your quiz scores and lets you create your own quizzes, mind maps, flashcards and notes.

Who is this page for?

It suits university students and professional candidates studying poisonings in animals, and teachers who want ready-made material. Most of the resources are at university level, with a smaller share aimed at professionals.

Which quizzes cover large animals?

Several do. Try Tox: large animal plants 1, Large animal plants, Large Animal Plants 3, Feed related toxicoses and Equine Toxicology. The deck Plant and chemical poisonings in cattle is a useful companion for cases of sudden death in livestock.
