  • For additional glycemic control, the dosage may be increased to 15 mg orally once daily in patients tolerating STEGLATRO.
  • Use of STEGLATRO is not recommended in patients with an estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) less than 45 mL/min/1.73 m2.

2.3 Temporary Interruption for Surgery

Withhold STEGLATRO for at least 4 days, if possible, prior to surgery or procedures associated with prolonged fasting. Resume STEGLATRO when the patient is clinically stable and has resumed oral intake.
