Renal dosing, restrictions and evidence limits
For adults with severe renal impairment, CrCl <30 mL/min, start at 0.5 mg twice daily. Increase in increments of 0.5 mg or less administered twice daily. For doses above 1.5 mg twice daily, increases should occur at intervals of at least one week. This is an oral regimen; it is not an initiation or conversion schedule for long-acting injections such as UZEDY. Response and tolerability remain part of titration.
