No patient-specific dose is calculated. Context choices only display reminders; they do not validate, hide or change any regimen.

Share a reproducible source review

Choose sources below, then open a print-ready comparison with product scope, renal method, dates and cautions. Links can pin the exact local cards; they never contain patient values or choose a dose.

Historical source content is not a current prescription. Original GlobalRPh recommendations are preserved, not automatically certified as current. Product-label and professional additions below are separately attributed. Confirm indication, population, kidney-function method, monitoring and the full prescribing information before applying a regimen.

Important source distinctions

Historical endocarditis prophylaxis statements are retained for continuity, not current procedure-specific guidance. Do not apply conventional intervals to an extended-interval regimen automatically.

Usual Dosing (Adults)

Adults IM/IV systemic severe life-threatening infections: conventional 2 to 2.5 mg/kg/dose every 8 to 12 hours. Higher initial doses may be considered in selected patients with expanded extracellular water (edema, septic shock, postoperative or trauma) to obtain adequate early peaks. Some clinicians suggest 4 to 7 mg/kg once daily with normal renal function; the source describes similar efficacy and similar or possibly less toxicity versus conventional dosing.

Urinary tract infection: 1.5 mg/kg/dose every 8 hours. Gram-positive synergy: 1 mg/kg/dose (no interval specified in this source sentence).

Historical endocarditis prevention: dental/oral/upper respiratory procedures, 1.5 mg/kg (maximum 80 mg) with ampicillin 1 to 2 g, 30 minutes before procedure. GI/GU surgery: 1.5 mg/kg (maximum 80 mg) with ampicillin 2 g, 30 minutes before procedure.

Renal Dosing

Conventional intervals: CrCl >=60 mL/min every 8 hours; 40 to 60 every 12 hours; 20 to 40 every 24 hours; <20 give loading dose then monitor levels. High-dose therapy: may extend interval (e.g. every 48 hours) in moderate impairment, CrCl 30 to 59, and/or adjust based on serum concentrations.

Hemodialysis

Dialyzable. The source states about 30% aminoglycoside removal during 4 hours of HD. Give after dialysis and follow levels.

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.
