What is in the Adult and Peds Dosing sections of Epocrates standard drug monographs?

0

The Adult and Peds Dosing sections of Epocrates Rx standard monographs include dosage forms and dosing for both FDA-approved indications and off-label uses. Off-label uses and populations are denoted by a preceding asterisk (*). Available dosage forms are listed at the tops of these sections. By convention, when the unit strength for dosage forms is mg, Epocrates does not specifically include this for conservation of space. For products that are systemically absorbed to a clinically significant extent, dosing for patients with renal and hepatic dysfunction is also provided. Renal dosing also includes dose adjustments and supplement dose information for patients receiving hemodialysis (HD) or chronic ambulatory peritoneal dialysis (CAPD), when available. When brand products or formulations have been discontinued by the manufacturer, this is noted. Clicking on the generic name will direct you to other products with the same active ingredient(s), when available.
