RX mirror: this is not independent corroboration of its underlying label. Check dated-label and formulation limitations.
Renal dosing, restrictions and evidence limits
Use with great caution, if at all, in severe renal impairment or conditions causing potassium retention. Monitor potassium, other electrolytes, acid-base balance and fluid status. Reduced excretion can produce dangerous hyperkalemia or fluid overload. No fixed renal infusion rate or dose is established by these warnings; account for the exact premix and all concurrent electrolyte/fluid sources.
