We’ve all heard it. Poinsettias are deadly! Dilution is the solution to pollution! But are they really? In this lighthearted and interactive session we will go through common misconceptions in veterinary toxicology including potentially toxic substances and common treatment modalities. We will also discuss ways to empower your staff to sift through the weeds to help understand what is really a concern and why certain decontamination and treatment recommendations are made.
