Electrolyte abnormalities (e.g. [[hypercalcaemia]] and [[hyperphosphataemia]]) are common overdose symptoms. Treatment is mostly supportive, with particular attention being paid to correcting electrolyte anomalies and reducing intake of calcium in both the form of supplementation and diet.<ref name = EMC/> As it is so heavily bound to plasma proteins [[haemodialysis]] is unlikely to be helpful in cases of overdose.
