Preparation of reconstituted solution (based on body weight)
Therapeutic dose: 0.01 mg/kg body weight
Body weight of patient (kg) Lyfaquin® dose per vial (mg) Reconstituted with 10 mL
Sodium Chloride Injection I.P. (0.9% w/v)

If patient weight is >100 Kg, reconstitute the second vial, withdraw the required amount (0.01 mg/kg body weight) and add to normal saline to make final volume 100 mL.

Each reconstituted vial contains a sterile solution equivalent to 0.1 mg of Centhaquine citrate per mL (1.0 mg/10 mL).
