3. How to Use Eribulina Stada
Administration Form
A qualified healthcare professional will administer eribulina as an injection into a vein over a period of 2 to 5 minutes.
Dose
The dose you receive is based on your body surface area (expressed in square meters, or m2) calculated from your weight and height.
The usual dose of eribulina is 1.23 mg/m2, although your doctor may adjust it based on blood test results or other factors. After eribulina administration, it is recommended to irrigate the vein with a saline solution to ensure the complete administration of eribulina.
Eribulina Administration Frequency
Eribulina is usually administered on days 1 and 8 of each 21-day cycle. Your doctor will determine how many treatment cycles you should receive. Depending on blood test results, your doctor may need to delay eribulina administration until blood test results return to normal values.

If you have any other questions about the use of this medication, ask your doctor.
