The use of enzyme pharmaceuticals in very high doses may be accompanied by hyperuricosuria (an increase in the level of uric acid in the blood), hyperuricemia (an increase in the level of uric acid in the urine). In patients with cystic fibrosis, when using high doses of this pharmaceutical agent, narrowings may occur in the ascending part of the colon, ileocecal region.
In case of an overdose, it is necessary to assess the patient’s condition by a specialist and conduct symptomatic therapy.

- Urinary disorders: when used in high doses in patients with cystic fibrosis, an increased excretion of uric acid in the urine is possible, therefore, in such patients it is necessary to monitor its value in the urine (in order to avoid the formation of uric acid stones).
