POSOLOGY AND METHOD OF ADMINISTRATION
Treatment with ziconotide should only be undertaken by physicians
experienced in intrathecal (IT)
administration of medicinal products.
Patients should undergo a neuropsychiatric evaluation before, after
starting and during intrathecal
ziconotide and immediately when any depressive signs or symptoms
appear. (See Section 4.3, 4.4, 4.8
and 5.1).
Posology
_Dose initiation _
Dosing of ziconotide should be initiated at
_no more than_
2.4 μg/day and titrated on an individual
patient basis according to analgesic response and adverse reactions.
_Dose titration _
For each dose titration, assess the dosing requirements and adjust the
pump infusion flow rate as
required to achieve the new dosing.
Patients may be titrated in dose increments of ≤ 2.4 μg/day, up to
a maximum dose of 21.6 μg/day.
The minimal interval between dose increases is 24 hours; the
recommended interval, for safety
reasons, is 48 hours or more.
The maximum daily dose is 21.6 µg/day (0.9 µg/h).
The median dose at response is approximately 6.0 μg/day and
approximately 75% of responsive
patients required ≤ 9.6 μg/day in placebo-controlled clinical
trials. However, to limit the occurrence of
3
serious adverse reactions, reports from clinical practice indicate
that responsive patients may require a
smaller daily dose of approximately 3.0 - 4.5 µg/d or lower.
Adjust the dose of intrathecal ziconotide according to the severity of
pain,
