Buscopan Overdosage

Sugar-coated tablet: If more BUSCOPAN Tablets are taken than necessary, talk to a doctor or go to a hospital straight away. Take the medicine pack even if there are no BUSCOPAN Tablets left.
Injection: For management of a suspected drug overdose, contact the regional Poison Control Centre immediately.
Symptoms: Single oral doses of up to 590 mg and quantities of active drug up to 1090 mg within 5 hours have produced dry mouth, tachycardia, slight drowsiness and transient visual disorders. Other symptoms include urinary retention, reddening of the skin, and inhibition of gastrointestinal motility.
Other symptoms which occurred in animals and which may be encountered in humans include: shock, Cheyne-Stokes respiration, respiratory paralysis, clonic spasms, paresis of the striated muscle, coma, paralytic ileus and cystoparalysis.
Treatment: BUSCOPAN overdose symptoms respond to parasympathomimetics.
For patients with glaucoma, administer pilocarpine locally. If necessary, parasympathomimetics should be administered, e.g. neostigmine 0.5-2.5 mg i.m. or i.v.. Cardiovascular complications should be treated according to usual therapeutic principles. In case of respiratory paralysis: intubation, artificial respiration.
Catheterisation may be required for urinary retention.
Other overdosage symptoms should be treated with standard supportive therapy.
