The minimum course of treatment is 7 days divided into 4 oral doses and can be extended up to 14 days if needed. When clearance falls below 20 ml/min, the patient should ask the physician to reduce the dose. Normally, a decrease in clearance below 20 would require a half dose reduction from current levels.
