===OVERDOSAGE===
 
Treatment of overdosage should be supportive and individualized. Beta-adrenergic stimulation and/or parenteral administration of calcium injections may increase calcium ion flux across the slow channel, and have been effectively used in treatment of deliberate overdosage with oral verapamil hydrochloride. Verapamil cannot be removed by hemodialysis.
 
Clinically significant [[hypotensive ]]reactions or high-degree [[AV block]] should be treated with vasopressor agents or cardiac pacing, respectively. [[Asystole ]]should be handled by the usual measures including [[isoproterenol ]]hydrochloride, other vasopressor agents, or [[cardiopulmonary resuscitation]] (see [[Verapamil hydrochloride injection adverse reactions|ADVERSE REACTIONS: Suggested Treatment of Acute Cardiovascular Adverse Reactions]]).
