==Overdosage==
 
The symptoms of overdosage may include [[hypotension]], [[somnolence]], [[bradycardia]], intra-atrial and intraventricular conduction disturbances, and rarely, [[convulsions]] and high-grade [[ventricular arrhythmias]]. [[Defibrillation]], as well as infusion of [[dopamine]] and [[isoproterenol]] have been effective in controlling abnormal rhythm and [[blood pressure]]. Convulsions have been alleviated with intravenous [[diazepam]]. General supportive measures such as mechanical respiratory assistance and external cardiac massage may be necessary.
 
The [[hemodialysis]] of propafenone in patients with an overdose is expected to be of limited value in the removal of propafenone as a result of both its high protein binding (>95%) and large volume of distribution.<ref name="dailymed.nlm.nih.gov">{{Cite web  | last =  | first =  | title = RYTHMOL (PROPAFENONE HYDROCHLORIDE) TABLET, FILM COATED [GLAXOSMITHKLINE LLC] | url = http://dailymed.nlm.nih.gov/dailymed/lookup.cfm?setid=8dd938c8-d37c-4a82-b36d-dd0a2d31c8fa | publisher =  | date =  | accessdate = 12 March 2014 }}</ref>
