Uses of Cecrisina in details
Cecrisina is used to prevent or treat low levels of Cecrisina in people who do not get enough of the vitamin from their diets. Most people who eat a normal diet do not need extra Cecrisina. Low levels of Cecrisina can result in a condition called scurvy. Scurvy may cause symptoms such as rash, muscle weakness, joint pain, tiredness, or tooth loss.
Cecrisina plays an important role in the body. It is needed to maintain the health of skin, cartilage, teeth, bone, and blood vessels. It is also used to protect your body's cells from damage. It is known as an antioxidant.

Cecrisina dosage
Important Preparation and Administration Instructions
- Cecrisina vials contain 25, 000 mg of Cecrisina and the largest recommended single dose is 200 mg. Do not give the entire contents of the vial to a single patient.
- Do not administer Cecrisina as an undiluted intravenous sensitive.
- Minimize exposure to light because Cecrisina is light sensitive.
- Cecrisina is supplied as a Pharmacy Bulk Package (PBP) which is intended for dispensing of single doses to multiple patients in a pharmacy admixture program and is restricted to the preparation of admixtures for infusion:
a. Use only in a suitable ISO Class 5 work area such as a laminar flow hood (or an equivalent clean air compounding area)
b. Penetrate each PBP vial closure only one time with a suitable sterile transfer device or dispensing set that allows measured dispensing of the contents. Given that pressure may develop within the vial during storage, excercise caution when withdrawing contents from the vial.
c. Once the closure system has been penetrated, complete all dispensing from the PBP vial within 4 hours. Each dose must be used immediately. Discard unused portion.
d. Prior to administration, Cecrisina must be diluted in a suitable infusion solution and the final solution for infusion must be isotonic (undiluted the osmolarity of Cecrisina is approximately 5,900 mOsmol/L). Prior to preparing the admixture for infusion, calculate the osmolarity of the intended admixture for infusion. Add one daily dose of Cecrisina directly to an appropriate volume of a suitable infusion solution (e.g., 5% Dextrose Injection, Sterile Water for Injection) and add appropriate solutes, as necessary, to make final solution isotonic. Sterile Water for Injection is highly hypotonic; adjust solute content, as necessary, to make thet final infusion solution isotonic prior to injection. Do not mix Cecrisina with solutions containing elemental compounds that can be reduced (e.g., copper). The concentration of Cecrisina in the final, admixture solution for infusion is to be the range of 1 to 25 mg of Cecrisina per mL. For example, for the largest recommended dose:
Add 200 mg of Cecrisina (equivalent to 0.4 mL of Cecrisina) to 7.5 mL of Sterile Water for Injection to produce an infusion solution having an approximate osmolarity of 290 mOsmol/L. In this specific example, addition of solute is NOT necessary because the solution is isotonic.
e. Prepare the recommended dose based on the patient population [ see Dosage and Administration (2.2), (2.3)].
f. Visually inspect for particulate matter and discoloration prior to administration (the diluted Cecrisina solution should appear colorless to pale yellow).
g. Immediately administer the admixture for infusion as a slow intravenous infusion [ see Recommended Dosage, (2.2)]
Recommended Dosage
Table 1 provides recommended doses of Cecrisina based on patient population and infusion rates of diluted Cecrisina solution.
| Patient Population | Cecrisina Once Daily Dose (mg) | Infusion Rate of Diluted Cecrisina Solution (mg/minute) |

| Pediatric Patients age 1 year to less than 11 years | 100 | 3.3 |
| Adults and Pediatric Patients 11 years and older | 200 | 33 |

Dosage Reductions in Specific Populations
