Is It Possible to Take Too Much Tekamlo?
The specific effects of an overdose can vary, depending on a number of factors, including the
Tekamlo dosage and whether it was taken with any other medications or substances.
Effects of a Tekamlo Overdose
Because Tekamlo is a relatively new medication, there is very little information available about the potential effects of an overdose. However, based on information available about the two components of Tekamlo, the following overdose effects may be expected:
The rapid heart rate usually develops as a direct result of the dangerously low blood pressure because the heart tries to compensate for the low blood pressure.
Treatment for an Overdose
The treatment for a Tekamlo overdose will also vary.
If the overdose was recent, a healthcare provider may "pump the stomach" or give medications to induce vomiting. Treatment may also involve supportive care, which consists of treating the symptoms that occur as a result of the overdose.
For example, supportive treatment options for this type of overdose may include:
- Fluids through an intravenous line (IV)
- Careful monitoring of the heart, blood pressure, and breathing
- Medications to increase blood pressure
- Medications to slow the heart rate
- Other treatments based on complications that occur.
It is important that you seek medical attention immediately if you believe that you or someone else may have overdosed on Tekamlo.
