Administration

Adult Dosing

  • Acquired methemoglobinemia: 1 mg/kg IV over 5-30min, may repeat in 1h with up to 1 mg/kg IV if methemoglobin level still >30% or symptoms persist
  • Drug-induced methemoglobinemia: 1-2 mg/kg IV slowly over several minutes
  • See vasopressors
    • For hypotension refractory to catecholamine pressors
    • Consider after catecholamine, vasopressin, and mineralocorticoid refractive shock

Pediatric Dosing

  • Same as weight-based adult dosing

Special Populations
