The dosage of clofazimine will vary depending on the condition being treated, your age, and your overall health.
It is typically taken by mouth, either as a tablet or capsule, with or without food.
Follow your doctor's instructions carefully and do not stop taking the medication without talking to your doctor.

Clofazimine can be harmful to the kidneys, and it is important to monitor kidney function regularly if you are taking this medication.
