Abstract

This case report presents diagnostic methods used for a 2.5 kg, 1-year-old female British Shorthair cat admitted to a veterinary hospital with non-specific symptoms, including anorexia, lethargy, jaundice, and dehydration. After a comprehensive evaluation of the anamnesis, clinical findings, laboratory results, imaging, and the exclusion of similar diseases, a diagnosis of iatrogenic acetaminophen toxicity was established. While numerous case reports and studies address acetaminophen toxicity, this report emphasizes how the employed diagnostic methods contribute to accurate diagnosis. Ultimately, thorough evaluation of anamnesis data, combined with these examination techniques, can facilitate precise disease identification and enhance awareness of its characteristics. Moreover, case reports like this one can increase awareness and help reduce fatalities associated with acetaminophen intoxication.
