It is usually administered intramuscularly or subcutaneously in doses of 3 to 6 mg per day for three days. It is essential to use this medication precisely as prescribed by your doctor, and it is best administered by a healthcare professional.

    • Consult your physician before taking this medication and if you have any questions or concerns regarding your existing treatment.
  • In case of Overdose

    Mucopolysaccharide polysulfate is expected to have minimal adverse reactions, with the severity of reactions being dose-dependent. In the case of an overdose, the patient may experience diarrhea or loose stools, which should subside eventually. In some cases, electrolyte disturbances may occur and may require corrective measures such as oral or parenteral electrolyte replacements. Should the patient begin vomiting, they may protect their airway by gagging or swallowing to prevent aspiration of the substance. If toxicity signs and symptoms persist beyond four hours, the patient is advised to seek medical discharge if safe to do so. The physician in charge should consider the need for arrhythmia prevention or treatment, particularly in cases of sodium depletion. In cases of excessive diarrhea, there is no specific treatment, and the patient should be monitored and given fluids as required. The attending physician should be alerted at the earliest opportunity in the event of a severe reaction. Ultimately, elimination of the product through the feces without absorption is expected in cases of overdose.

With Mucopolysaccharide Polysulfate, it is important to reference the specific instructions given by your doctor or pharmacist regarding missed doses.
