Nutriflex Omega Special 56/144 (Valine, Alanine, Arginine, Isoleucine, Leucine, Methionine, Phenylalanine, Proline, Serine, Threonin)

Nutriflex Omega Special 56/144 is a parenteral amino‑acid solution that supports patients with increased protein and caloric needs.

• Critical care: helps maintain nitrogen balance and supports tissue repair.
• Post‑operative recovery: provides essential amino acids for wound healing and muscle preservation.
• Long‑term parenteral nutrition: supplies a balanced amino‑acid profile for patients unable to meet needs orally.

• The solution delivers a balanced mixture of essential and non‑essential amino acids directly into the bloodstream, bypassing gastrointestinal absorption. These amino acids serve as substrates for protein synthesis, support nitrogen balance, and contribute to the production of neurotransmitters and metabolic intermediates, thereby sustaining cellular function during periods of catabolism.

Adverse reactions are reported infrequently but may occur with any parenteral nutrition product.

Common Side Effects

• Phlebitis at the infusion site: inflammation of the vein.
• Mild electrolyte disturbances: changes in potassium or sodium levels.
• Transient fever: low‑grade temperature rise during infusion.
• Nausea: occasional feeling of queasiness.
• Headache: mild discomfort reported by some patients.

Serious or Rare Side Effects

• Anaphylactic reaction: severe allergic response requiring immediate medical attention.
• Metabolic acidosis: significant shift in blood pH.
• Hyperammonemia: elevated ammonia levels in the blood.
• Sepsis related to catheter infection: systemic infection originating from the infusion line.
• Hepatic dysfunction: abnormal liver enzyme elevations.

When using Nutriflex Omega Special 56/144, clinicians should observe several safety measures.

• Monitor electrolytes: check serum levels regularly during therapy.
• Assess renal function: adjust infusion if creatinine clearance is reduced.
• Observe for signs of infection: watch infusion site for redness or discharge.
• Review patient’s amino‑acid tolerance: consider prior reactions to amino‑acid solutions.
• Store at 2-8°C: keep refrigerated, protect from light, do not freeze or shake.

Nutriflex Omega Special 56/144 may interact with other intravenously administered agents.

Major Interactions (Avoid)

• Concurrent high‑dose potassium chloride: risk of hyperkalemia.
• Acidic intravenous fluids: may precipitate amino acids.

Moderate Interactions (Monitor Closely)

• Loop diuretics: can amplify electrolyte shifts.
• Insulin therapy: may enhance intracellular potassium uptake.
• Other parenteral nutrition formulations: risk of nutrient overload.
• Blood products: may require timing adjustments to avoid incompatibility.
• Vasopressors: monitor hemodynamic response during infusion.
