Overdose of Ibufen forte
In children, symptoms of overdose may occur when taking a dose of ibuprofen exceeding 400 mg/kg. The half-life in overdose is 1.5-3 hours.
Symptoms. Most patients who received clinically significant amounts of the drug developed only nausea, vomiting, epigastric pain, very rarely diarrhea. Tinnitus, headache, and gastrointestinal bleeding may also occur. In more severe poisoning, toxic CNS lesions are possible, which manifest as vertigo, drowsiness, sometimes – an excited state and disorientation or coma. Sometimes patients have convulsions
Treatment: Treatment should be symptomatic and supportive, and include maintaining a patent airway and monitoring cardiac and vital signs until the condition returns to normal. Oral administration of activated charcoal or gastric lavage is recommended within 1 hour of ingestion of a potentially toxic dose.
Side effects
The most frequent adverse reactions are gastrointestinal in nature and are mainly dose-dependent, including a risk of gastrointestinal bleeding, which is dose- and duration-dependent. Adverse reactions are less common when the maximum daily dose does not exceed 1200 mg.
Interaction
The concomitant use of ibuprofen with acetylsalicylic acid should be avoided unless a lower dose of acetylsalicylic acid (not higher than 75 mg per day) has been prescribed by a doctor, and with other NSAIDs, including selective COX-2 inhibitors (COX-2), as this may increase the risk of side effects.
