Uses

Dosage and Administration

  • POLYPEP SUSPENSION is usually taken orally, with or without food, as directed by your healthcare provider.
  • Shake the suspension well before each use to ensure proper mixing of the medication.
  • Use a measuring device to ensure accurate dosing. Do not use a household spoon as it may not provide the correct dosage.
