QSYMIA - phentermine/topiramate ER capsules

Product / population
QSYMIA fixed-combination extended-release capsules; renal ceiling, not a starting-dose or taper schedule.
Renal measure
CrCl by Cockcroft-Gault using actual body weight, mL/min.

Renal dosing, restrictions and evidence limits

For CrCl below 50 mL/min, the maximum is phentermine 7.5 mg/topiramate 46 mg orally once daily. For CrCl 50 to less than 80, the usual regimen may be used. Avoid use in end-stage renal disease on dialysis. Keep the initial titration, pregnancy-prevention requirements, contraindications, and discontinuation precautions from the full label; the renal ceiling is not an instruction to start at that dose.

Renal dosing, restrictions and evidence limits

The source describes increased exposure to both components with declining renal function. Its study groups were CrCl 50 to less than 80, 30 to less than 50, and below 30 mL/min. Patients with end-stage renal disease on dialysis were not studied. A dose ceiling is not imported from this pharmacokinetic section; the missing prescribing subsection requires follow-up.
