| ==OVERDOSAGE==
| |
| | |
| Accidental ingestion of at least 50 mg of MINIPRESS in a two year old child resulted in profound drowsiness and depressed reflexes. No decrease in blood pressure was noted. Recovery was uneventful.

| Should overdosage lead to [[hypotension]], support of the cardiovascular system is of first importance. Restoration of blood pressure and normalization of heart rate may be accomplished by keeping the patient in the[[ supine position]]. If this measure is inadequate, shock should first be treated with volume expanders. If necessary, [[vasopressors]] should then be used. Renal function should be monitored and supported as needed. Laboratory data indicate MINIPRESS is not dialysable because it is protein bound.<ref name="dailymed.nlm.nih.gov">{{Cite web | last = | first = | title = MINIPRESS (PRAZOSIN HYDROCHLORIDE) CAPSULE [PFIZER LABORATORIES DIV PFIZER INC] | url = http://dailymed.nlm.nih.gov/dailymed/lookup.cfm?setid=36c4da56-502e-4da1-acf7-8e81ee453dcc | publisher = | date = | accessdate = 6 March 2014 }}</ref>
