2 additional source qualifications - review before use
The same 50% renal reduction starts from different adult and pediatric doses

SIKLOS provides separate pediatric and adult starting doses. The DROXIA extract is adult capsule guidance. Applying the adult starting amount to a child would change the regimen even if the percentage reduction were correct.

Before applying: Use the exact age/product starting dose, prescribed weight method, measured CrCl instruction and hematology monitoring plan. Related hydroxyurea products remain separate.

Siklos - product and source limitations

Verify the age-specific initial dose, tablet strength and hematologic monitoring.

Before applying: Apply only to the stated formulation, indication and renal population.

Dose or interval guidance. Use only the product, indication, renal metric and population described in this source.

Renal dosing, restrictions and evidence limits

At CrCl >=60 mL/min, the initial daily dose is 20 mg/kg in pediatric patients and 15 mg/kg in adults. Below 60 or in ESRD, reduce by 50%: 10 mg/kg/day in children and 7.5 mg/kg/day in adults. Obtain CrCl using a 24-hour urine collection. On hemodialysis days, administer after dialysis.

For starting-dose weight, use actual or ideal body weight, whichever is less. Monitor blood counts every two weeks and follow the full escalation, toxicity interruption and recovery instructions. These scored tablets are labeled for sickle cell anemia in adults and children at least two years old; do not substitute the adult DROXIA capsule starting dose for the pediatric SIKLOS dose.

population and formulation

The same 50% renal reduction starts from different adult and pediatric doses

SIKLOS provides separate pediatric and adult starting doses. The DROXIA extract is adult capsule guidance. Applying the adult starting amount to a child would change the regimen even if the percentage reduction were correct.

How to use this: Use the exact age/product starting dose, prescribed weight method, measured CrCl instruction and hematology monitoring plan. Related hydroxyurea products remain separate.
