1 local source card selected. Local card fingerprints checked where supplied. This is not an original-document hash, source-currency guarantee or clinical approval. Record-level cautions below are the current library's cautions, not a frozen prior version.

Copy is optional; the link can be selected and copied manually. No patient data or dose decision is collected.

Clinical context remains essential

Independent clinical review is pending. Confirm indication, exact formulation/route, population, renal measure and units, kidney-function stability, dialysis prescription, interacting drugs, monitoring and source revision. An RX mirror and its original label are not independent corroboration. Missing disagreement notes do not certify agreement.

Historical H. pylori regimens, the pediatric weight table and lifelong MAC statement are preserved from the source; they are not independently verified current treatment recommendations. IR and XL are distinct formulations.

The handbook renal dose ranges and selected U.S. label dose-reduction rules differ. Current label instructions and patient-specific interactions must be reviewed; the sources are not counted as agreeing.

Historical renal and dialysis statements

The handbook lists normal dosing at GFR 30-50 and oral 250-500 mg every 12 hours in both 10-30 and <10 bands. Its HD/APD/CAPD rows say not dialysed and refer to the <10 band; high-flux and continuous clearance are unknown. It warns about high-dose vomiting below 10 and the potentially fatal colchicine interaction.

Source-specific limits

The book's dose ranges do not consistently implement the current selected U.S. label's 50% reduction. The IV and XL regimens in the book are not transferred into this immediate-release U.S. tablet summary. No Stanford validation is asserted.
