GlobalRPh general renal statement

For Hypertensive Patients with Renal Impairment: For patients with a creatinine clearance <30 mL/min/1.73 m2 (serum creatinine >3 mg/dL), the recommended initial dose is 5 mg benazepril hydrochloride tablet once daily. Dosage may be titrated upward until blood pressure is controlled or to a maximum total daily dose of 40 mg.

Normal renal function: The recommended initial dose for patients not receiving a diuretic is 10 mg once a day. The usual maintenance dosage range is 20-40 mg per day administered as a single dose or in two equally divided doses. A dose of 80 mg gives an increased response, but experience with this dose is limited.

Import versus clinical validation
Source-section locators identify where retained content came from. A source-section identifier does not assert that every numeric statement has been independently corroborated. The local text hash is not a hash of original HTML, an FDA PDF or SPL XML.

The original individual GlobalRPh pages commonly cite NIH/NLM DailyMed and instruct readers to review the applicable package insert for updates. That historical reference is preserved as context; it is not counted as an independently retrieved current label.
