Fuzeon Overdose: An Overview
Fuzeon® (
enfuvirtide) is a prescription
AIDS and
HIV medication. It belongs to a class of medications known as fusion inhibitors. The effects of a Fuzeon overdose will vary, depending on a number of factors, including the
Fuzeon dosage and whether it was taken with any other medicines, alcohol, food, or street drugs.
If you happen to overdose on Fuzeon, seek immediate medical attention.
Symptoms of a Fuzeon Overdose
It is not known what exactly to expect from an overdose of Fuzeon. For adults, an overdose is unlikely, because an entire vial of Fuzeon contains just one dose. However, for children, a miscalculation of the dose or incorrect measuring of the dose could lead to a Fuzeon overdose. It is reasonable to expect that an overdose would likely cause the usual
Fuzeon side effects, but perhaps more severely.
Treatment for a Fuzeon Overdose
