Typical dosage for Azathioprine

The dosing for this medication is different for everyone. It depends on your weight and other factors your healthcare provider considers.

  • Kidney transplantation: Once you have a kidney transplanted and are stable, the typical dosing is 1 mg to 3 mg per kilogram of bodyweight by mouth once daily. This usually comes out to 50 mg to 150 mg per day.

  • Rheumatoid arthritis: The typical dosing is 1 mg per kilogram of bodyweight given by mouth once daily or divided into two doses per day.

Your dose will change if your provider needs to manage your condition or lower side effects.
