Typical dosage for Extraneal

Extraneal can be given at home by yourself or by a healthcare provider. The typical dosing for this medication can vary depending on your body size, the amount of waste in your body, and the severity of your kidney problems. Your provider will give you exact instructions on how to perform your dialysis at home before you start.

  • In general, Extraneal is given through the peritoneum over 10-20 minutes. The solution then stays in your belly for 8-16 hours before being drained and refilled.
