Ved dosisreduktion hos patienter, som oplever alvorlig neutropeni (neutrofiltal < 0, 5 x 109/ l) i 7 dage eller mere, eller alvorlig neutropeni forbundet med feber eller infektion, eller hvis behandling er blevet udskudt pga. neutropeni, bør dosis reduceres med 0, 4 mg/ m2/ dag til 1, 9 mg/ m2/ dag (eller derefter om nødvendigt ned til 1, 5 mg/ m2/ dag).
If dose reduction is chosen for patients who experience severe neutropenia (neutrophil count < 0.5 x 109/ l) for 7 days or more, or severe neutropenia associated with fever or infection, or who have had treatment delayed due to neutropenia, the dose should be reduced by 0.4 mg/ m2/ day to 1.9 mg/ m2/ day (or subsequently down to 1.5 mg/ m2/ day if necessary).
