Ziac Overdose

Treating a Ziac Overdose

The treatment for an overdose with Ziac will vary. If the overdose was recent, a healthcare provider may give certain medicines or place a tube into the stomach to "pump the stomach." Treatment will also involve supportive care, such as:
 
  • Giving medications to increase the heart rate
  • Giving IV fluids and medications to increase blood pressure
  • Giving asthma medications to reverse airway constriction
  • Giving IV glucose to reverse low blood sugar
  • Correcting electrolyte imbalances.
     
It is important that you seek medical attention immediately if you believe that you may have taken too much Ziac.
