Nandrolone Dosage and Administration
Nandrolone decanoate injection is
intended for deep intramuscular injection only, into the gluteal
muscle preferably.
Dosage should be based on
therapeutic response and consideration of the benefit to risk ratio.
Duration of therapy will depend on the response of the condition and
the appearance of adverse reactions. If possible, therapy should be
intermittent.
Nandrolone decanoate should be
regarded as adjunctive therapy and adequate quantities of nutrients
should be consumed in order to obtain maximal therapeutic effects.
For example, when it is used in the treatment of refractory anemia,
adequate iron intake is required for a maximal response.
Anemia of Renal Disease
A dose of 50 to 100 mg per week is
recommended for women and 100 to 200 mg per week for men. Drug
therapy should be discontinued if no hematologic improvement is seen
within the first six months. For children from 2 to 13 years of age,
the average dose is 25 to 50 mg every 3 to 4 weeks.
Parenteral drug products should be
inspected visually for particulate matter and discoloration prior to
administration, whenever the solution and container permit.
