PRECAUTIONS SECTION
CAUTION:
Do not use in animals with ileus or intenstinal obstruction. Activated Charcoal Suspension with Sorbitol should not be given in conjunction with oral medications as the charcoal may absorb the therapeutic agent. Maintain patient hydration. Monitor for 4 hours after use for signs of hypernatremia (ataxia, tremors, and/or seizures).
NOTE:
Osmotic chathartics may be associated with electrolyte disturbances (hypernatremia) due to loss of excess free body water in the gut. Dehydration and hypotension have been reported with excessive cathartic use. Chatartics should only be used with the initial charcoal delivery. If charcoal is still indicated, use Activated Charcoal Suspension or Granules at the lower dosage every 24-48 hours. Tests for ethylene glycol must be conducted before Activated Charcoal Suspension is given to prevent false positive reactions.
