Distribute in three doses throughout the day, and administer preferably before meals.
For the following conditions and situations the recommended doses are: Neurosis and vertigo: 150 to 300 mg/day.
Psychosis: 400 to 1,600 mg/day, although the dose can be increased to a maximum of 2,400 mg/day.
In acute and chronic psychosis, start treatment with sulpiride for injection given intramuscularly, at a rate of 2-8 ampoules/day, during the first 2 weeks.
In case of kidney failure, the dosage should be adjusted depending on creatinine clearance.
The reduction of the dose may be 35% to 70% as follows: For a clearance of 30 to 60 ml/min: administer 50% to 70% of the usual dose.
For a clearance of 10 to 30 ml/min: administer 35% to 50% of the usual dose.
For a clearance lower than 10 ml/min: administer a maximum of 35% of the usual dose.
Elderly patients may present with higher plasma concentrations of sulpiride, and so they usually require a smaller initial dose and gradual dose adjustment.
For all other indications, as a general rule, the dosage will be as follows: Adults: 3 to 6 capsules daily. In case of vertigo, it may reach 9 capsules per day.
