Symptoms: Based on pharmacological considerations, the main manifestations of excessive doses are likely to be hypotension and dizziness. In individual reports of cases of overdose (up to 672 mg candesartan cilexetil), patients can recover without causing symptoms.
Management: If symptoms of hypotension occur, symptomatic treatment must be carried out and monitor vital signs. The patient must be placed in the supine position with the legs elevated. If this is not enough, plasma volume is increased by infusion, such as: isotonic saline solution. Sympathomimetic drugs can be given if the above measures are considered insufficient. Candesartan cilexetil cannot be removed by hemodialysis.
