Overdose

When used in recommended therapeutic portions, the risk of intoxication is minimal.

Overdose can develop due to the medicinal effects of benzocaine. With the systemic absorption of this element, which leads to intoxication, a feeling of excitement, drowsiness, or anxiety develops, and if severe poisoning, convulsions appear.

There is evidence that the use of drugs, which contain benzocaine, can provoke the appearance of methaemoglobinaemia (its symptoms are indicated above). In case of development of signs similar to methemoglobinemia, you should immediately consult a doctor, because this violation can potentially be dangerous for the patient's life.

Emergency medical procedures for intoxication and the appearance of methaemoglobinemia are intravenous injection of methylene blue. With other signs of poisoning, you must abolish the use of drugs and carry out symptomatic activities.

Interactions with other drugs

Medication can not (in the absence of life indications and medical control) be prescribed in combination with antidepressants, MAOI and antihypertensive drugs, because this in theory can provoke a weakening of the effectiveness of MAOI or potentiation of the properties of antihypertensive drugs. These disorders are related to the fact that drugs interact with benzocaine at a marked excess of the standard dosages and duration of use.
