Dialysis Notes
Intermittent HD assumes high-flux hemodialysis. CRRT assumes CVVHD with ultrafiltration rate 2L/h and residual native GFR < 10 mL/min. For detailed view of dialysis dosing and evidence, see Dosing in Hemodialysis document.
Avoid co-administration of the oral formulation with divalent/trivalent cations (e.g. calcium, magnesium, zinc) - separate by at least 2 hours.
