Intravenous drip or stream. A single dose of the drug depends on the concentration of the albumin solution, the initial condition and the age of the patient. A solution of albumin 5% injected at a dose of 200-300 ml, if necessary, the dose of 5% solution can be increased to 500-800 ml.
An albumin solution of 5% should be administered at a rate of no more than 50-60 cap / min. A single dose of 20% albumin is 100 ml. The injection rate is not higher than 40 cap / min. For the treatment of cerebral edema, hyperoncotic solutions of albumin (10-20%).
The jet injection of albumin solutions is acceptable for shocks of different genesis for rapid increase in blood pressure.
In pediatric practice, taking into account the concentration of albumin solutions, their dosages should be calculated in ml / kg (not more than 3 ml / kg).
In elderly patients, avoid the use of concentrated albumin solution (20%) and rapid administration of a 5% solution of albumin, since this can lead to an overload of the cardiovascular system.
