Based on the information available, I was unable to find an exact number of times per day that Tigecycline is typically administered. However, the Tigecycline package insert by Wyeth Pharmaceuticals, a Pfizer Division, does provide some insight into its administration.

Tigecycline is an antibiotic, and it is available as an intravenous (IV) injection. The typical dosage for adults is 50 mg every 12 hours for 5-14 days [1]. Since it is administered intravenously, the number of times per day it is given can depend on the specific treatment plan and the healthcare provider's recommendation.

It is important to note that the frequency of administration may vary depending on the patient's kidney function, weight, and the type and severity of the infection being treated [1]. Always consult with a healthcare professional for medical advice.
