Buccolam dosing

Usual Adult Dose for Light Sedation:

Oral:
10 to 20 mg one time before procedure.
IV:
1 to 2.5 mg IV over 2 to 3 minutes before procedure. Wait an additional 2 or more minutes to fully evaluate the sedative effect. If additional titration is necessary, it should be given at a rate of no more than 1 mg over 2 minutes, waiting an additional 2 or more minutes each time to fully evaluate the sedative effect. Total doses greater than 5 mg are not usually necessary.
IM:
0.07 to 0.08 mg/kg 30 to 60 minutes prior to surgery. Reduce dose in patients with COPD, high risk patients, and when narcotics or other CNS depressants are used. Maximum dose 10 mg.

Usual Adult Dose for Light Anesthesia:

Initial dose: 2 mg IV once at a rate not to exceed 1 mg/min immediately before the procedure. Additional doses of 0.5 to 2 mg may be administered after 2 minutes to achieve desired level of sedation. Most patients achieve adequate sedation with a total dose less than 5 mg.
Maintenance dose: Generally does not exceed 25% of the dose initially required to achieve sedation.

Usual Adult Dose for ICU Agitation:

Initial dose: 0.01 to 0.08 mg/kg IV over 2 to 3 minutes, every 5 to 15 minutes to control acute agitation.
Maintenance dose: 0.02 to 0.2 mg/kg/hour by continuous infusion. The patient should be assessed regularly and the infusion rate adjusted to maintain the desired level of sedation. The minimum effective rate is recommended. Lower infusion rates are required in patients also receiving opioid analgesics.

Usual Geriatric Dose for Light Sedation:

IV:
1 to 1.5 mg IV over 2 to 3 minutes before procedure. Wait an additional 2 or more minutes to fully evaluate the sedative effect. If additional titration is necessary, it should be given at a rate of no more than 1 mg over 2 minutes, waiting an additional 2 or more minutes each time to fully evaluate the sedative effect. Total doses greater than 3.5 mg are not usually necessary.
IM:
0.02 to 0.05 mg/kg IM 30 to 60 minutes prior to surgery.
Usual doses are 1 to 3 mg. Some patients may respond to as little as 1 mg.
If concomitant CNS depressant premedications are used in these patients, they will require at least 50% less Buccolam than healthy young unpremedicated patients.
