The lethal dosage of diltiazem can vary widely depending on individual factors such as age, weight, overall health, and concurrent medications. Generally, doses exceeding 600 mg in adults can lead to significant toxicity, but lethal outcomes have been reported with doses as low as 200 mg in some cases. It is essential to seek immediate medical attention in the case of an overdose, as symptoms can include severe hypotension, bradycardia, and cardiac arrest. Always use medications as prescribed and consult a healthcare professional for guidance.
LD10, or lethal dose 10, is the dosage causing death in 10% of exposed animals.
Yes and no. For both it depends both on the frequency and dosage received in the exposure. Anything is lethal at high enough dosage!
Different manufaturers for the generic drug.
I have been advised to replace amlodipine with diltiazem. Can I do it straightway? Or I should do it gradually?
The usual dosage of gelfoam is anywhere under 50 grams per day. Anything over 50 grams per day can prove to be unsafe and in some cases, lethal.
yes
These herbs offer high potency but are potentially toxic, and should not be used in self-treatment. Because the therapeutic dosage may be close to the lethal dosage, these herbs are presented cautiously and closely
Poison is typically measured in terms of its toxicity, which is often described using units such as LD50 (lethal dose for 50% of the population) or LC50 (lethal concentration for 50% of a population). These measurements help determine the lethal dosage or concentration of a substance that can cause harm or death to living organisms.
Lethal dose 50, the dosage at which 50% of animals (usually rabbits, I think) given the chemical die as a result of toxicity.
Depending on dosage, but can be. If you are on this much at one time, get a new doctor.
yes
It's possible, as toxicity is defined both by the element or compound and the dosage per weight. LiCl is not especially acutely lethal as cyanide would be, but in sufficient concentration it could be harmful and potentially lethal.
