Typical dosage for Ruconest

Because the dose is based on body weight, your or your child's provider will help you calculate the right dose.

The typical dose is 50 units/kg of body weight, with a maximum of 4,200 units per dose, given as an injection into the vein slowly over 5 minutes.

For people with a body weight of 84 kg (184 lbs) or more, use the maximum dose of 4,200 units.

A second dose can be given if the attack symptoms don't go away. Don't take more than two doses in a 24-hour period.
