4.2 Posology and method of administration

Adrenaline Aguettant 0.1 mg/ml can be administered by intravenous (I.V.) injection, and in extremely serious cases and if the intravenous route is not practicable, via the intracardiac route.

The intravenous and intracardiac routes must be used in the hospital setting, under cardiac monitoring. Adrenaline Aguettant will be administered by healthcare personnel.
For the treatment of cardiac arrest and cardiopulmonary resuscitation, the recommended dose of epinephrine (adrenaline) is 1 mg by intravenous injection (1 pre-filled syringe) and can be repeated every 3-5 minutes as many times as necessary.

In children, the standard dose is 0.01 mg/kg by intravenous injection, which can be repeated every 5 minutes if necessary.
This medicinal product is not suitable for delivering a dose of 0.5 ml and should therefore not be used by the intravenous or intraosseous route, in neonates and infants with body weight less than 5 kg.

When the intravenous route is not practicable, the intracardiac route can be used. However, it should be borne in mind that this route presents serious risks and should only be used if the intravenous route is persistently inaccessible.
