Dosage and Administration

Recommended Dosage

Adult and Pediatric Patients

The preferred dosing frequency of VIDEX is twice daily because there is more evidence to support the effectiveness of this dosing regimen. Once-daily dosing should be considered only for patients whose management requires once-daily dosing of VIDEX [see Clinical Studies (14)]. The recommended adult total daily dose is based on body weight (kg) (see Table 1).[1]
