How Should You Use Kytril (Injection)

• Your doctor will prescribe your dose and tell you how often it should be given.
• Your medicine will be given through a tube put in one of your veins, usually in your arm, wrist, or hand and sometimes in your chest. This is called intravenous (in-tra-VEEN-us), or IV.
• Your treatment will be given by a nurse or other caregiver trained to give IV medicine. Sometimes you, someone in your family, or a friend can be taught to give your medicine.
• The IV liquid should be clear. If you see any specks in the IV liquid or if it changes color, You should not use the medicine. Get a new dose of the medicine.
If a dose is missed:
• If you have your treatments at home, use the medicine as soon as you remember.
• If it is almost time for your next regular dose, skip the missed dose. Use the medicine at your usual time.
• Do not give two doses at the same time.
• If you get your treatments at a clinic, call the clinic. You may need to make a new appointment.
