The drug is administered by infusion. Before use, the concentration of the drug, dose and speed of infusion should be selected individually in each case. The dose required for administration depends on the body weight, the severity of the injury or disease, and the continued loss of fluid and protein. To determine the required dose, the sufficiency of BCC, rather than the level of albumin in the plasma, should be assessed.
The average dose is -1-2 ml / kg daily or every other day until the effect is achieved.
For 5% solution albumin an average single dose is 200-300 ml, the maximum the dose is 500-800 ml. The recommended rate of administration is not more than 60 drops / min.
For 10% solution albumin single dose is 100 ml. The recommended rate of administration is no more than 40 drops / min.
With exchange replacement of plasma, the infusion rate may be higher and should match the removal rate.
In pediatric practice, albumin 10% is given in a dose of 3 ml / kg body weight.
In children, the dose of the drug is set individually, taking into account the clinical state and body weight of the patient. The recommended single dose is 0.5-1 g / kg body weight body. In hemolytic disease of newborns, the drug is prescribed at a dose of 1 g / kg body weight 1 hour before the exchange transfusion procedure.
The drug can be used in premature infants.
The drug can be used in patients on hemodialysis.
