Suggest Dosage Of Ponstan

Hi, I am currently taking Ponstan prescribed by my doctor, but I actually am very curious about it. I don t like taking medication very much and I am afraid I might overdose and maybe die. How much ponstan would be fatal? I am trying to only take it when I really need it

Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service.

I have reviewed your query and here is my advice. Taking unnecessary dosage of any medication is harmful. Ponstan 500mg 8 hourly is the recommended dose. Increased dosage may cause gastric upset.

Hope I have answered your question. Kindly rate it. Let me know if I can assist you further.
