Overdosage
No data are available with regard to overdose of Zemimet SR 50/1000 mg.
Gemigliptin: During clinical trials in healthy subjects, multiple doses of up to 600 mg gemigliptin were administered for duration of 10 days. One case of increased heartbeat was observed at a single dose of 600 mg gemigliptin. There is no experience with daily doses above 600 mg in clinical studies. In the event of an overdose, it is reasonable to employ the usual supportive measures, e.g., remove unabsorbed material from the gastrointestinal tract, employ clinical monitoring (including obtaining an electrocardiogram), and institute supportive therapy as indicated by the patient's clinical status.
Metformin: Hypoglycemia has not been seen with metformin doses of up to 85 g, although lactic acidosis has occurred in such circumstances. High overdose or concomitant risks of metformin may lead to lactic acidosis. The most effective method to remove lactate and metformin is haemodialysis.
Pancreatitis may occur in the context of a metformin overdose.
