Dosage & Administration

* Ensure corrected serum calcium is at or above the lower limit of normal prior to initiation, dose increase, or re-initiation.
* The recommended starting dose is 5 mg administered by intravenous bolus injection three times per week at the end of hemodialysis treatment.
* The maintenance dose is individualized and determined by titration based on parathyroid hormone (PTH) and corrected serum calcium response. The dose range is 2.5 to 15 mg three times per week.
* The dose may be increased in 2.5 mg or 5 mg increments no more frequently than every 4 weeks.
* Measure serum calcium within 1 week after initiation or dose adjustment and every 4 weeks for maintenance.
* Measure PTH after 4 weeks from initiation or dose adjustment.
* Decrease or temporarily discontinue PARSABIV in individuals with PTH levels below the target range.
* Consider decreasing or temporarily discontinuing PARSABIV or use concomitant therapies to increase corrected serum calcium in patients with a corrected serum calcium below the lower limit of normal but at or above 7.5 mg/dL without symptoms of hypocalcemia.
* Stop PARSABIV and treat hypocalcemia if the corrected serum calcium falls below 7.5 mg/dL or patients report symptoms of hypocalcemia.
* Do not mix or dilute prior to administration.
* Administer by intravenous bolus injection into the venous line of the dialysis circuit after hemodialysis, during rinse back or intravenously after rinse back.
* Administer a sufficient volume of saline, e.g. 150 mL of rinse back, after injection into the dialysis tubing.
* If administered after rinse back, administer PARSABIV intravenously followed by at least 10 mL of saline flush.
