Nexobrid Dosage

Nexobrid is applied to your skin by a healthcare professional. Your dose is based on your body surface area (BSA), which takes into account your weight and height.

• Adults: The typical dose is a 3 mm-thick layer applied to a burn area up to 15% of your BSA. The area will be covered with a dressing, and the medication will stay on for 4 hours. After that, your care team will gently scrape off the dead skin from the treated area.

  • If all of the dead skin can't be removed, if you have multiple wounds, or if your burn covers more than 15% BSA, you might receive a second treatment 24 hours later.
  • For both applications together, the total treated area can't be more than 20% of your BSA.

• Children

  • 6 years and older: The typical dose is a 3 mm-thick layer applied to a burn area up to 15% of your child's BSA. The area will be covered with a dressing, and the medication will stay on for 4 hours. After that, their care team will gently scrape off the dead skin from the treated area.
  • Less than 6 years old: The typical dose is a 3 mm-thick layer applied to a burn area up to 10% of your child's BSA. The area will be covered with a dressing, and the medication will stay on for 4 hours. After that, their care team will gently scrape off the dead skin from the treated area.
