What is the prognosis for methanol toxicity?
Prognosis depends on the severity of toxicity. It is considered fair to good for animals that are still pretty alert. It is considered poor for cases with coma or convulsions. • Follow-Up: “Kato” spent one night in the critical care unit with intravenous diuresis. His owners declined 4MP or ethanol. By morning he was alert and no longer ataxic. He was then sent home.
