(Generic versions may still be available.)

OVERDOSE

No cases of overdosage in humans have been reported. It is unlikely that overdosage will occur because of the nature of use (i.e., single intravenous administration in controlled settings).

Signs and symptoms as described under ADVERSE REACTIONS are expected to occur and could be even more severe in single cases. Symptomatic therapy is recommended. Should severe chest pain or brochospasm occur, parenteral aminophylline may be administered by slow intravenous injection (50-100 mg over 30 to 60 seconds) in doses ranging from 50 to 250 mg.

See WARNINGS.

CONTRAINDICATIONS

Hypersensitivity to dipyridamole or any of the other components of the drug.
