Treatment for an Edarbyclor Overdose
If the overdose was recent, a healthcare provider may administer activated charcoal or "pump the stomach" to help reduce the amount of the medication that is absorbed into the bloodstream.
In addition, treatment may involve supportive care, which consists of treating symptoms that occur as a result of the overdose. For example, supportive care for an overdose of Edarbyclor may include:
- Medications to increase blood pressure, if needed
- Fluids through an intravenous (IV) line
- Close monitoring of the kidneys and heart
- Close monitoring of blood electrolyte levels, such as, sodium, potassium, and chloride.
It is unknown if kidney dialysis is helpful in removing Edarbyclor from the body.
It is important that you seek medical attention immediately if you believe that you or someone else may have received too much of this medication.
