Typical dosage for Carmustine

Your oncologist will determine the dose of carmustine (BiCNU) based on your body surface area (BSA), which takes into account weight and height. The dose and how often you need treatment also depends on cancer type. This medication is infused through the veins by a healthcare professional. Your oncologist might adjust your dose based on your blood cell count.

Carmustine (BiCNU) is typically given with other anticancer medications.
