Overdosage
Symptoms: Overdose with valsartan may result in marked hypotension, which could lead to depressed level of consciousness, circulatory collapse and/or shock.
Treatment: Treatment is based on the time of ingestion and the type and severity of symptoms, stabilisation of the circulatory condition being of prime importance.
The patient should always be given a sufficient amount of activated charcoal.
If hypotension occurs, the patient should be positioned in a supine position and salt and volume supplementation should be given rapidly.
Valsartan can not be removed by dialysis due to strong plasma protein binding.
