==Overdosage==
 
Nadolol can be removed from the general circulation by hemodialysis.
 
In addition to gastric lavage, the following measures should be employed, as appropriate. In determining the duration of corrective therapy, note must be taken of the long duration of the effect of nadolol.
 
===Excessive Bradycardia===
 
Administer atropine (0.25 to 1.0 mg). If there is no response to vagal blockade, administer isoproterenol cautiously.
 
===Cardiac Failure===
Administer a digitalis glycoside and diuretic. It has been reported that glucagon may also be useful in this situation.
 
===Hypotension===
Administer vasopressors, e.g., epinephrine or levarterenol. (There is evidence that epinephrine may be the drug of choice.)
 
===Bronchospasm===
Administer a beta2-stimulating agent and/or a theophylline derivative.<ref name="dailymed.nlm.nih.gov">{{Cite web  | last =  | first =  | title = INDERAL LA (PROPRANOLOL HYDROCHLORIDE) CAPSULE, EXTENDED RELEASE [AKRIMAX PHARMACEUTICALS, LLC] | url = http://dailymed.nlm.nih.gov/dailymed/lookup.cfm?setid=c2e709d2-96a2-41ea-b5e9-9ce4ccb91f59 | publisher =  | date =  |accessdate = }}</ref>
