Can a dog take benzonatate for cough?

Benzonatate is not generally recommended for use in dogs. It can be toxic to dogs, and there are other medications that are safer and more effective for treating cough in dogs. If your dog is coughing, it's important to take them to a veterinarian to determine the cause of the cough and get the appropriate treatment. Do not give your dog any medication without first talking to your veterinarian.
