Renal dosing, restrictions and evidence limits
Monitor renal function and electrolytes: progressive renal failure and reduced kidney size have been reported. The effect of renal impairment on pharmacokinetics is unknown in the source. No numeric CrCl adjustment is supplied by this extract. Preserve the major scheduling warning: lomustine is a single oral dose and must not be repeated more often than every six weeks. A renal recommendation must never be misread as a daily schedule. Oncology assessment and the full hematologic/toxicity monitoring instructions remain necessary.
