Companion Animals: Carnitine
Vitamin Safety

No data have been reported for carnitine toxicity studies for dogs and cats. Oral dosages of 100 mg per kg (45.5 mg per lb) have been given to infants and 1 to 3 g daily to adult humans with little problem. Some patients experienced diarrhea, but not if they started with smaller dosages and then increased gradually (Borum, 1991).
