Clinical signs or symptoms of infection should not be evident at the time of ZOLGENSMA infusion.1
ZOLGENSMA is a suspension administered as an intravenous infusion over 60 minutes. A programmable syringe pump should be used to infuse the full volume of ZOLGENSMA. The recommended dose of ZOLGENSMA is 1.1 × 1014 vector genomes per kilogram (vg/kg) of body weight.1

Systemic corticosteroid regimen
All patients should receive systemic corticosteroids prior to and following ZOLGENSMA infusion.
The recommended treatment regimen is detailed in the Prescribing Information and on the After Treatment page of this website. Prophylactic corticosteroid treatment is required to help manage potential increases in liver aminotransferases following infusion with ZOLGENSMA.1
