Vaptan – 15 mg Tablet

Hypervolemic or euvolemic hyponatremia: The usual starting dose for Tolvaptan is 15 mg administered once daily without regard to meals. Increase the dose to 30 mg once daily, after at least 24 hours, to a maximum of 60 mg once daily, as needed to achieve the desired level of serum sodium. Do not use for more than 30 days due to the risk of hepatotoxicity.

Autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease (ADPKD):

• Initially: 60 mg/day in divided doses (given as 45 mg upon wakening and 15 mg 8 hours later);
• Titrate per response and tolerability at intervals of at least 7 days between titrations to 90 mg/day in divided doses (given as 60 mg upon wakening and 30 mg 8 hours later) followed by 120 mg/day in divided doses (given as 90 mg upon wakening and 30 mg 8 hours later).
• Maintain urine osmolality of <300 mOsm/kg if possible; if the maximum dose is not tolerated, administration of a lower dose with the goal of achieving urine osmolality of 250 to 300 mOsm/kg is reasonable.
