DOSAGE AND METHOD OF ADMINISTRATION
Doxorubicin may be given by intravenous (bolus) injection over 2-5
minutes or as continuous infusion into a running infusion of sodium
chloride 0.9% w/v intravenous injection, dextrose intravenous
injection
5% w/v or sodium chloride and dextrose intravenous injection.

concurrent chemotherapy.
THE RECOMMENDED DOSE AS SINGLE AGENT
The commonly recommended dosage schedule as single agent is
60-75 mg/m

An alternative dose schedule is 20 mg/m
2
intravenously, for three
consecutive days, once every three weeks.
_The maximum cumulative dose_: 550 mg/m

exceeded.

toxicity.
The recommended dosage is 20 mg/m
2
weekly, although objective
responses have been seen with doses between 6 and 12 mg/m
2
.
COMBINATION THERAPY
Dosage should be decreased when combination with other cytostatic
drugs with any similar toxicity is used.
_The maximum cumulative dose_: If a patient received mediastinal
irradiation, has concomitant heart disease, or is also treated with
