Elderly patients are more susceptible to the hypertensive and bradycardial effects of phenylephrine, so they may have reduced cardiac output as a result of sinus bradycardia, increasing the risk of possible heart failure.
Overdose
In case of overdose, general symptomatic treatment should be started immediately. Patients who took excessive doses of Dimegan D experienced tachycardia, headache and drowsiness. Hemodialysis is not effective.
Interaction
Concomitant use with ketoconazole, erythromycin and cimetidine may cause an increase in loratadine concentrations. Beta-blockers can increase the vasoconstrictor effects of phenylephrine. MAO inhibitors can prolong and intensify the pressor effects of phenylephrine as well as oxytocin.
