Amoxicillin Overdose
Emergency in India: call 112 (unified) or 108 (ambulance) immediately.
Do not wait. Suspected overdose needs medical assessment even if the person seems fine.
10 OVERDOSAGE No information is available on accidental overdosage of VOQUEZNA TRIPLE PAK or VOQUEZNA DUAL PAK in humans.
In case of an overdose, patients should contact a physician, poison control center, or emergency room.
The available overdosage information for each of the individual components in VOQUEZNA TRIPLE PAK and VOQUEZNA DUAL PAK are summarized below: Vonoprazan There have been no reports of overdose with vonoprazan.
In clinical studies, a single dose of 120 mg resulted in no serious adverse reactions.
Vonoprazan is not removed from the circulation by hemodialysis.
If overdose occurs, treatment should be symptomatic and supportive.
Amoxicillin In case of amoxicillin overdosage, discontinue medication, treat symptomatically and institute supportive measures as needed.
A prospective study of 51 pediatric patients at a poison-control center suggested that overdosages of less than 250 mg/kg of amoxicillin are not associated with significant clinical symptoms.
Interstitial nephritis resulting in oliguric renal failure has been reported in a small number of patients after overdosage with amoxicillin.
Crystalluria, in some cases leading to renal failure, has also been reported after amoxicillin overdosage in adult and pediatric patients.
In case of overdosage, adequate fluid intake and diuresis should be maintained to reduce the risk of amoxicillin crystalluria.
Renal impairment appears to be reversible with cessation of drug administration.
High blood levels may occur more readily in patients with impaired renal function because of decreased renal clearance of amoxicillin.
Amoxicillin can be removed from circulation by hemodialysis.
Clarithromycin Overdosage of clarithromycin can cause gastrointestinal symptoms such as abdominal pain, vomiting, nausea, and diarrhea.
Treat adverse reactions accompanying overdosage by the prompt elimination of unabsorbed drug and supportive measures.
As with other macrolides, clarithromycin serum concentrations are not expected to be appreciably affected by hemodialysis or peritoneal dialysis.
