How is neulasta given to children under 45kg? the syringe supplied is for 6mg and has no graduation marks on it. so is it given by eyeballing it or by emptying the contents in a vial & then drawing required dose with another graduated syringe?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Pharmacist question: Do not "eyeball" the dosage. Instead check with pharmacist re availability of syringe with markings less than 0.6 ml. More about pediatric dosage of Neulasta https://www.rxlist.com/neulasta-drug.htm#indications_dosage
