    Nitrofurantoin macrocrystals capsules should be given with food to improve drug absorption and, in some patients, tolerance.

    Adults: 50 to 100 mg four times a day – the lower dosage level is recommended for uncomplicated urinary tract infections.

    Pediatric Patients: 5 to 7 mg/kg of body weight per 24 hours, given in four divided doses (contraindicated under one month of age).

    Therapy should be continued for one week or for at least 3 days after sterility of the urine is obtained. Continued infection indicates the need for reevaluation.

    For long-term suppressive therapy in adults, a reduction of dosage to 50 to 100 mg at bedtime may be adequate. For long-term suppressive therapy in pediatric patients, doses as low as 1 mg/kg per 24 hours, given in a single dose or in two divided doses, may be adequate.

    Use the lowest effective dose for the patient.

    2.1 Dosage in Adults

    The recommended starting dose is 1 mg. Dosing can be raised to 2 mg or 3 mg if clinically indicated. In some patients, the higher morning blood levels of eszopiclone following use of the 2 mg or 3 mg dose increase the risk of next day impairment of driving and other activities that require full alertness [see WARNINGS AND PRECAUTIONS (5.1)]. The total dose of eszopiclone should not exceed 3 mg, once daily immediately before bedtime [see WARNINGS AND PRECAUTIONS (5.6)].

    2.2 Geriatric or Debilitated Patients

    The total dose of eszopiclone tablets should not exceed 2 mg in elderly or debilitated patients.

    2.3 Patients with Severe Hepatic Impairment, or Taking Potent CYP3A4 Inhibitors

    In patients with severe hepatic impairment or in patients coadministered eszopiclone with potent CYP3A4 inhibitors, the total dose of eszopiclone tablets should not exceed 2 mg [see WARNING AND PRECAUTIONS (5.7)].

    2.4 Use with CNS Depressants

    Dosage adjustments may be necessary when eszopiclone tablets are combined with other CNS depressant drugs because of the potentially additive effects [see WARNINGS AND PRECAUTIONS (5.1)].

    2.5 Administration with Food

    Taking eszopiclone tablets with or immediately after a heavy, high-fat meal results in slower absorption and would be expected to reduce the effect of eszopiclone tablets on sleep latency [see CLINICAL PHARMACOLOGY (12.3)].
