中文描述假如犬隻的飲水來源為含有鋰次氯酸鹽的水,則其可能會鋰中毒。其尿液的比重皆很低。血清中鋰的含量(藉由分光光度計測定)增高。治療方法為支持性照顧、飲用乾淨的水,則動物會康復。
英文描述Lithium toxicity was reported in 2 dogs whose sole source of drinking water had been a swimming pool filled with lithium hypochlorite chlorinated water. Both dogs had consistently low urine specific gravity. Serum lithium levels, determined using an atomic absorption spectrophotometer, were elevated when compared to control dogs. Treatment consisted of supportive care and a change to fresh drinking water; both animals recovered.
