Typical dosage for Halaven
The typical dose will be based on your body surface area (BSA, measured in units of m2), which takes into account your height and weight.
Usually, the dose is 1.4 mg/m2 given as an infusion through the vein (intravenously or IV). It’s given on days 1 and 8 of each 21-day cycle of treatment (in other words, once a week for 2 weeks, then repeated after a week break).
Your dose might be lower if your liver or kidneys aren’t working well. You might also need a lower dose if you have side effects from the medication.
