<p>The toxicity of phenoxymethylpenicillin is low, and it has a broad therapeutic range. When a multiple therapeutic dose is taken orally once only, phenoxymethylpenicillin has no acute toxicity. There is a risk of encephalopathy in cases of administration of beta-lactam antibiotics, particularly in case of overdose or renal impairment. Special measures in the event of overdosage, other than discontinuation of the medication, are not required. Elimination of phenoxymethylpenicillin can be accomplished through haemodialysis.</p>
