| dailymed-instance:overdosag... |
The administration or ingestion of overdoses of Tyzine (tetrahydrozoline hydrochloride) Nasal Solution may result in oversedation in young children. Overdoses have caused hypertension, bradycardia, drowsiness and rebound hypotension in adults; a shock-like syndrome with hypotension and bradycardia may also occur. In either case, the treatment of overdosage is usually that of watchful expectancy and general supportive measures. The patient should be kept warm, fluid balance should be maintained orally, if possible, and parenterally, if necessary. If the respiratory rate drops to 10 or below, the patient should be given oxygen, and respiration assisted. Blood pressure should be watched carefully to prevent a hypotensive crisis. There is no known antidote for Tyzine Nasal Solution. The use of stimulants is contraindicated. To date, we have had no report of fatalities resulting from overdosages of Tyzine Nasal Solution and while the symptoms resulting from Tyzine Nasal Solution overdosage may be alarming, they are self-limiting and the patient recovers withno sequelae.
