Treatment should be symptomatic and supportive. Gastric lavage and treatment with active charcoal, as soon as possible, to prevent absorption together with symptomatic measures to treat gastro-intestinal irritation and other complications such as hypotension, convulsions, respiratory disorders and renal failure are indicated. Correction of severe electrolyte abnormalities may need to be considered.
