Renal guidance at a glance

Cautions / source differences (1)
Review first - source-specific qualification

Total daily doses, indexed eGFR and metabolic indication must stay together

CARBAGLU has separate renal tables for NAGS deficiency and acute PA/MMA-associated hyperammonemia. The numbers are total daily doses, not doses per administration.

Before applying: Confirm the indication, indexed eGFR, actual weight/BSA, dose splitting and rounding before prescribing; no ESRD dose is inferred.

Evidence for this qualification

Source-specific qualification; independent clinician review pending.

Confirm the product, indication and renal measure. The selected summary is not a complete prescribing monograph.

Renal dosing, restrictions and evidence limits

Use indexed eGFR (mL/min/1.73 m2). At 60-89 no renal adjustment is needed. The following are total DAILY doses, not per-dose amounts:

NAGS deficiency, acute: eGFR 30-59, 50-125 mg/kg/day; eGFR 15-29, 15-60 mg/kg/day. Chronic: 30-59, 5-50 mg/kg/day; 15-29, 2-25 mg/kg/day. Use actual body weight, divide into 2-4 doses, and round to the nearest 50 mg.

PA/MMA, acute: at 30-59, 75 mg/kg/day if weight <=15 kg or 1.7 g/m2/day if >15 kg. At 15-29, 25 mg/kg/day if <=15 kg or 0.55 g/m2/day if >15 kg. Divide into two equal doses 12 hours apart and round UP to the nearest 50 mg. Continue until ammonia is below 50 micromol/L, for a maximum of seven days.

Monitor ammonia and use concurrent ammonia-lowering treatment as indicated. ESRD PK is unevaluated; dialysis for hyperammonemia is not a replacement-dose instruction. Disperse tablets in water; do not swallow whole or crush.

Choose a source, then jump to its renal or dialysis section. These links locate stored text; they do not merge regimens or certify that sources agree.

New source summary - independent clinical review pending. Summaries of the identified label sections are included locally. Source import and numeric transcription checks are not independent two-reference validation. Do not treat this card as an approved institutional dosing protocol.

No dialysis or renal heading shown? Read the complete source summary. Absence of a heading is not evidence that dose adjustment is unnecessary.
