Tinidazole overdosage
Introduction
Overdosage
Overdosage
There are no reported overdoses with tinidazole in humans.
Treatment of Overdosage: There is no specific antidote for the treatment of overdosage with tinidazole; therefore, treatment should be symptomatic and supportive. Gastric lavage may be helpful. Hemodialysis can be considered because approximately 43% of the amount present in the body is eliminated during a 6-hour hemodialysis session.[1]
