Efficacy & effects

Trace element supply effect

View approved original text

When providing intravenous nutrition, it is important to supply necessary trace elements to balance the trace elements in the body. Trace elements play essential roles in various physiological functions in our body, so they should be supplied appropriately to avoid deficiencies. This helps to maintain normal body function and improve nutritional status. Therefore, supply of trace elements during intravenous nutrition therapy assists in the recovery of the patient's health.

Precautions

This medication should be diluted before administration, as injecting it directly into the vein without dilution may cause inflammation. This medication is a hypotonic solution and should only be used when mixed with other medications for injection. If any toxic reactions to any component occur during the use of this drug, administration should be discontinued immediately. The amounts of zinc, copper, manganese, and chromium in this drug are very small, so toxic symptoms are unlikely to occur at typical prescribing doses. Prior to administration, the physician must carefully assess the patient's health status and the amount needed by the body. Zinc is primarily excreted through the kidneys, so patients with poor kidney function may accumulate zinc in the body. Copper and manganese are excreted through bile, thus patients with blocked bile flow are at risk of accumulation of these components. Manganese is also excreted through pancreatic juice and can be reabsorbed in various parts of the small intestine. Chromium may affect blood sugar control, so diabetic patients should check their blood sugar status and the diabetes medications they are taking when using this drug. The safety of this drug during pregnancy is not well established, so women who are pregnant or may become pregnant should only use it after consulting a physician and when the benefits of treatment outweigh the risks. In cases of overdose, zinc may cause symptoms such as nausea, vomiting, dehydration, electrolyte imbalance, dizziness, abdominal pain, drowsiness, motor coordination disorders, and in severe cases, may result in death. Copper overdose may lead to symptoms like hypotension, behavioral changes, diarrhea, weight loss, muscle tension reduction, photophobia, and edema, with D-penicillamine being used as an antidote. Information on manganese overdose toxicity is limited, and toxicity from ingestion through food or drink has not been reported. Chromium overdose may lead to nausea, vomiting, ulcers, kidney and liver dysfunction, convulsions, and coma, which are central nervous system disorders. This drug must be used strictly according to a physician's prescription and should not be used arbitrarily without a prescription. When adding this drug to non-oral nutritional solutions, it is advisable to handle it carefully in a laminar flow cabinet to maintain aseptic conditions.
