Why dosing flexibility matters for CIDP patients

Formula used to calculate the weekly dose in mL from the patient’s weight in kg:

Weekly dose calculation

Weekly volume calculation

Patient body weight (in kg)
× dose (0.2 or 0.4 g/kg)
= weekly dose (in g)

Weekly dose (in g) ×
5 mL/1 g = volume (in mL)

Sample weekly
dosing calculations
for an 80-kg patient

0.2 g/kg

0.4 g/kg

80 kg × 0.2 g/kg = 16 g

80 kg × 0.4 g/kg = 32 g

16 g × 5 mL/1 g = 80 mL

32 g × 5 mL/1 g = 160 mL
