The symptoms of metabolic acidosis may include: severe respiratory distress with deep and rapid breathing, drowsiness, feeling of discomfort (nausea) and vomiting.
- In children and adolescents under 15 years old, consult your doctor or pharmacist, as there are other presentations with doses suitable for this group of patients.
