One time I was helping my mom set up her medication and I dropped a Cymbalta (potent anti-depressant) before I could get to it one of my Chihuahua's swallowed it whole!
I was horrified and called the vet immediately and could bearly be coherent. The vet calmed me down and told me to give him a teaspoon of tablesalt down the throat to make him barf.
Low and Behold...up came the dreaded pill.

So remember if they have swallowed something like medication that needs to come up immediately try a straight dose of table salt to induce vomiting.
