Pharmacology

As with all intravenous fluid therapies, the primary goal is to provide adequate water to offset insensible losses, urinary losses, and other fluid losses such as those from nasogastric suction, fistula drainage, and diarrhea. Administering the infusion at a rate of 45 mL/kg/day will generally meet the fluid and amino acid needs of a stable adult patient. However, in pediatric patients, especially neonates and those with low birth weight, the dosage and constant infusion rate of intravenous dextrose must be carefully selected to mitigate the increased risk of hyperglycemia or hypoglycemia.

Administration Advice:

• Administer slowly and avoid exceeding recommended rates.
• Infuse through central or peripheral veins as appropriate.
• Monitor for adverse reactions.

Pharmacology

• Promotes protein synthesis and wound healing.
• Reduces endogenous protein catabolism.
• Can be used with dextrose, electrolytes, vitamins, trace metals, and fat supplements for total parenteral nutrition (TPN).
• Suitable for central venous or peripheral vein administration.
