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 indication, duration and organism material is retained. This import does not establish that these are preferred current treatment choices.

Select the usual regimen before the renal row

The 750, 500 and 250 mg renal paths differ. The 250 mg row has a specific uncomplicated-UTI exception and lacks dialysis adjustment information.

What to reconcile: Retain indication, usual dose, loading dose and maintenance interval together.

Source recheck unresolved. Prior follow-up retrieval/version warning retained; not resolved by v6.0. Read source-review status

Locally included source-specific summary. Regimen differences are not automatically resolved.

Dosing / renal protocol and limits

Usual schedule: 750 mg daily. CrCl 30-49 mL/min: 750 mg loading, then 500 mg daily; 10-29: 750 mg every 48 hours. Below 10, PD or HD: 750 mg loading, then 500 mg every 48 hours, regardless of HD timing. CRRT retains usual dosing. This institutional approach differs from the UCSF 750-mg renal schedule and must not be blended with it.
