Route of Administration: IM injection

Adults, Children and Elderly:

Dosage should be individualised by the clinician for each patient. Serum and urinary calcium concentrations, phosphate and BUN should be monitored at regular intervals, initially weekly, in order to achieve optimum clinical response and to avoid hypercalcaemia.

Doses should not normally exceed 40,000 units/day (1.0mg/day) for adults and 10,000 units/day (0.25mg/day) for children.

Ergocalciferol Injection may be administered as a single dose or repeated daily, dependent upon clinical response and requirements. Calcium and phosphorous supplements should be administered where necessary.
