Overdosage
In clinical studies, three children received an overdose of more than 15 mg/kg. These doses were 20.25 mg/kg, 21.1 mg/kg and 22.27 mg/kg. No medical consequences were identified in these instances.
From the post-marketing experience, overdoses with doses up to 85 mg/kg have been reported and, in some cases, adverse reactions were reported which did not differ from those observed with 15 mg/kg dose (see Adverse Reactions). In case of overdosage, it is recommended that the patient be monitored for any signs or symptoms of adverse reactions or effects and appropriate symptomatic treatment instituted immediately.
