Prescribing Information: Overdosage
|
|
|
Rapid intravenous infusion of gallium nitrate or use of doses higher than recommended
(200 mg/m2) may cause nausea and vomiting and a substantially increased risk of renal
insufficiency. In the event of overdosage, further drug administration should be discontinued, serum
calcium should be monitored, and the patient should receive vigorous intravenous hydration, with or
without diuretics, for 2-3 days. During this time period, renal function and urinary output should
be carefully monitored so that fluid intake and output are balanced.
