The diuretic therapy should be discontinued for 2-3 days prior to initiation of therapy with Enacomi.

In patients with CrCl >30 and <80 mL/min, Enacomi should be used only after titration of the individual components.
The recommended initial dose of Enacomi maleate, when used alone, in mild renal insufficiency is 5-10 mg.
