- Adult uncomplicated influenza with no more than 2 days of symptoms; intravenous peramivir. Institutional repeated dosing is a separately labeled alternative, not the single-dose label course.
- Renal measure
- Cockcroft-Gault CrCl mL/min; explicitly specified in label Table 1.
Labeled basic dosing
| Creatinine clearance (mL/min) | Single IV treatment dose |

| 50 or higher | 600 mg |
| 30-49 | 200 mg |
| 10-29 | 100 mg |

Renal information and dialysis
Use Cockcroft-Gault CrCl for the adult table. In chronic hemodialysis, give the renal-adjusted dose after dialysis. The label table does not supply a separate below-10 non-dialysis dose.
Selected warnings and limits
This single-dose label indication should not be conflated with institutional daily treatment for severe illness. Review serious skin/hypersensitivity and neuropsychiatric warnings.
