Historical renal / replacement-therapy guidance

The 20-50, 10-20 and <10 mL/min bands retain the usual indication-specific dose. The book lists 5-10 mg orally daily. HD and PD are described as not removing the drug; high-flux removal is considered unlikely. These are historical renal statements, not instructions to bypass blood-pressure titration.

Dosing / renal protocol and limits

Adult hypertension: begin 5 mg orally once daily and titrate to a maximum of 10 mg daily. A 2.5-mg starting dose may be appropriate for small, frail or elderly patients, or hepatic insufficiency. Renal failure alone does not require lowering the usual starting dose. Titrate to blood pressure and tolerability; generally allow 7-14 days between changes. This selected repackaged label has an older revision; current availability of its NDC is not claimed.
