Renal dosing, restrictions and evidence limits
The usual product dose is 10 mg subcutaneously on day 1 before the specified chemotherapy, with the accompanying antiemetic regimen. At CrCl 30-59, do not administer more often than every 14 days. Avoid SUSTOL below CrCl 30. The polymer vehicle's elimination in renal impairment is uncharacterized; renal restrictions cannot be dismissed because granisetron itself is mainly metabolized hepatically. Do not substitute IV granisetron pharmacokinetic findings for this long-acting formulation's instructions.
