Typical dosage for Cafcit

Your baby's provider will calculate the right dose for your baby based on their body weight.

The loading (starting) dose of Cafcit is 20 mg/kg of weight given into the vein (IV) for one dose. Then, your baby will continue the medication at a maintenance dose of 5 mg/kg of weight once daily (every 24 hours). The maintenance dose can be given into the vein, by mouth, or through a feeding tube. Your baby's provider will start the maintenance dose 24 hours after the IV loading dose.
