In children an acute overdose usually causes vomiting, headache
but no permanent harm,
but the chronic overdoses ( eating a lot of liver, or taking too much for
months), causes dry brittle hair, hair loss, skin, liver enlargement, and
something
called pseudotumor cerebri (increased pressure in the brain-but no true
tumor)-this causes the headache and vomiting.
all this resolve once the source of Vit A is gone.
I don't think it has been documented in ferrets, but in Minks??
