Esta información está destinada únicamente a médicos o profesionales del sector sanitario:

Instrucciones para la administración

Con objeto de mejorar la trazabilidad de los medicamentos biológicos, el nombre y el número de lote del medicamento administrado deben estar claramente registrados.

Palivizumab no debe mezclarse con ningún medicamento o disolvente.

Tanto el vial de 0,5 ml como el vial del 1 ml contienen un sobrellenado para permitir la retirada de 50 mg o 100 mg respectivamente.

No diluya el producto.

No agitar el vial.

Para administrar, eliminar la parte de la lengüeta de la tapa del vial y limpiar el tapón con etanol 70% o equivalente. Introduzca la aguja en el vial y extraiga a la jeringa el volumen apropiado de solución. Palivizumab solución inyectable no contiene conservantes, es para un único uso y debe administrarse inmediatamente tras extraer la dosis a la jeringa.

La eliminación del medicamento no utilizado y de todos los materiales que hayan estado en contacto con él se realizará de acuerdo con las normativas locales.

Palivizumab se administra una vez al mes por vía intramuscular, preferiblemente en la cara anterolateral del muslo. El músculo glúteo no se debe utilizar habitualmente como un punto de inyección debido al riesgo de lesión en el nervio ciático. La inyección debe administrarse utilizando una técnica aséptica clásica. Los volúmenes de inyección superiores a 1 ml deben administrarse en dosis divididas.

Cuando use palivizumab 100 mg/1 ml, el volumen de palivizumab (expresado en ml) que debe ser administrado una vez al mes = (peso del paciente en kg) multiplicado por 0,15.

Por ejemplo, el cálculo para un bebé que pesa 3 kg:

(3 x 0,15) ml = 0,45 ml de palivizumab por mes.
