  • The healthcare team will monitor ammonia, potassium, blood chemistry, and the infusion site.

Dosage

Overdose

An overdose can cause serious changes in electrolytes, breathing, or the nervous system and needs emergency monitoring. If you think you have taken too much of this medicine, contact your doctor immediately or visit the nearest hospital.

Missed a Dose

This injection is given in a hospital. Tell the healthcare team immediately if an infusion is missed. If you missed any dose of medicine, take it as soon as you remember. If it is time for your next dose, then skip the missed dose and continue with your regular dose schedule. Do not take a double dose of medicine to compensate for the missed one.

How does this medicine work?

Sodium phenylacetate and sodium benzoate provide alternative routes for removing waste nitrogen. Their metabolites carry nitrogen into urine, helping lower ammonia when used with the hospital's other treatments.
