How many Anamorelin pills do you eat a day
The standard dose of Anamorelin is 100mg orally per day, and the specific number of pills to be taken should be calculated based on the single tablet size. If the dosage is 50mg/pill, 2 pills should be taken daily (taken on an empty stomach 30 minutes before breakfast); If the specification is 100mg/capsule, then 1 capsule per day is sufficient.
1. Explanation of Conventional Dosage
(1) 50mg/capsule specification: once daily x 2 capsules=100mg/day, should be swallowed whole and avoid taking with food.
(2) 100mg/pill specification: once a day x 1 pill=100mg/day. It is recommended to take it at a fixed time to maintain stable blood drug concentration.
Adjustment for Special Groups 2
(1) Liver dysfunction: Children Pugh B patients need to reduce their dosage to 50mg/day (i.e. 1 50mg or half 100mg).
(2) Renal insufficiency: Patients with eGFR<30mL/min need to adjust to 100mg every other day (i.e. 50mg size 2 pills/every other day).
3 Precautions
(1) Omission treatment: If a missed dose is found on the same day, it should be immediately replenished. If it is close to the next medication time, it should be skipped, and double dose remediation is prohibited.
(2) Course restriction: Continuous medication should not exceed 12 weeks, and regular weight and nutritional status assessments are required to adjust the dosage.
