RX mirror: this is not independent corroboration of its underlying label. Check dated-label and formulation limitations.
Renal dosing, restrictions and evidence limits
The source advises against use when estimated GFR is below 50 mL/min because renal dosing and toxicity experience are insufficient. Its printed unit is mL/min, without an indexed denominator. Stop treatment if acute renal failure develops or creatinine/BUN rises persistently to a clinically significant extent. Renal surveillance is distinct from the separate metabolic-acidosis and stone precautions. Do not substitute a guessed lower dose for the source restriction.
