1. What NUTRYELT is and what it is used for
NUTRYELT is a concentrate for solution for infusion.
It contains 9 essential trace elements (iron, copper, manganese, zinc, fluorine, iodine, selenium,
chromium, and molybdenum).
These trace elements are considered essential because the body cannot produce them on its own,
but they are required in very small amounts for normal body function.
NUTRYELT is used to provide trace elements in adult patients requiring parenteral nutrition.
2. Important information before using NUTRYELT.
When not to use NUTRYELT:
- if the patient is allergic (hypersensitive) to any of the ingredients of NUTRYELT (see section 6 of this leaflet);
- if the patient has abnormally high blood levels of any component contained in this medicine (in case of any doubts, consult a doctor);
- if the patient has pronounced cholestasis (yellowing of the skin or whites of the eyes caused by liver or blood disorders);
- if the patient has excess copper (Wilson's disease) or iron (hemochromatosis) in the body.
Warnings and precautions
Before using NUTRYELT, discuss with a doctor or pharmacist:
- if the patient has impaired kidney function;
- if the patient has impaired liver function, such as mild cholestasis (liver dysfunction with yellowing of the skin or whites of the eyes);
- if the patient receives repeated blood transfusions;
- if the patient has diabetes and is treated with insulin;
- if the patient has thyroid disease or is using iodine-containing medicines (e.g. iodine antiseptic preparations).
During treatment, the doctor will regularly monitor trace element levels in the blood.
The doctor will adjust the dosage of NUTRYELT accordingly.
Children
NUTRYELT should not be used in children and adolescents.

3. How to use the medicine NUTRYELT
The medicine NUTRYELT is intended for use only in adult patients.

your doctor or pharmacist.
Instructions for dilution prior to administration of NUTRYELT
NUTRYELT is not intended for administration in undiluted form. NUTRYELT must be
diluted or added to other solutions by gently mixing under strictly
aseptic conditions, immediately before administration.
NUTRYELT should be diluted, taking into account the final osmolarity of the solution, for example:
- 10 to 20 ml of NUTRYELT product may be diluted by adding at least 250 ml of 0.9% sodium chloride infusion solution;
- 10 to 20 ml of NUTRYELT product may be diluted by adding at least 250 ml of 5% glucose infusion solution.
The pH of the reconstituted solution of 20 ml NUTRYELT product using 250 ml of 0.9% sodium chloride is 3.3, and when using 5% glucose, the pH is 3.3–3.4.
Before use, visually inspect the reconstituted infusion solution. Only a clear solution, free from solid particles, should be used.
Do not store partially emptied containers and dispose of all equipment after use.
Check compatibility with solutions administered simultaneously through the same cannula.
Trace elements accelerate the degradation of ascorbic acid in parenteral nutrition mixtures.
Do not mix the medicinal product with other medicinal products except those mentioned in this section.
Do not use NUTRYELT as a vehicle for other medicines.
Recommended dose
The doctor will determine the dose appropriate for the patient.
The recommended daily dose is one ampoule (10 ml) of NUTRYELT. The doctor may administer up to 2 ampoules per day to the patient.
