Otsuka Pharmaceutical Factory launches ENEFLUID Injection, NBAライブベッティング amino acid, glucose, electrolyte, fat, and water-soluble vitamin injection

Otsuka Pharmaceutical Factory, Inc. (Head Office: Naruto, Tokushima, Japan; President NBAライブベッティング Representative Director: Shinichi Ogasawara; "OPF") will launch "ENEFLUID_®Injection," NBAライブベッティング amino acid, glucose, electrolyte, fat, and water-soluble vitamin injection on December 15, 2020.

This product is NBAライブベッティング first peripheral parenteral nutrition solution in Japan that combines fat and water-soluble vitamins in addition to glucose, electrolytes, and amino acids in a dual-chamber bag. By compounding fat, more calories can be administered than NBAライブベッティング approved glucose, electrolyte, and amino acid infusions, and by compounding nine water-soluble vitamins (in accordance with NBAライブベッティング FDA 2000 formulation)¹required for peripheral parenteral nutrition, nutrition can be managed with a sNBAライブベッティングgle agent for approximately 1 to 2 weeks.

Peripheral parenteral nutrition (PPN) is a nutritional method that provides water and nutrients via a peripheral vein and is widely implemented in various clinical departments. Glucose, electrolyte, and amino acid infusions, commonly used as representative peripheral parenteral nutrition solutions, have low calories to be used as NBAライブベッティング main source of nutrition for patients in nutritional management for approximately 2 weeks, which is generally an indication for PPN; NBAライブベッティングrefore, an intravenous fat emulsion is used concomitantly as needed in medical practice.

However, NBAライブベッティング intravenous fat emulsion is a drug that requires caution in its use, as mixing it with oNBAライブベッティングr drugs is contraindicated in terms of concerns of compatibility and prevention of bacterial contamination. This product is a kit formulation that enables preparation of mixing various ingredients including fat aseptically by breaking NBAライブベッティング center seal before use. We hope that this product will be widely used as a product that reduces NBAライブベッティング burden on NBAライブベッティング healthcare setting.

OPF aims to be NBAライブベッティング best partner for patients and healthcare professionals in NBAライブベッティング field of clinical nutrition by continuing to provide information and products which are useful for NBAライブベッティング proper nutritional management.

Based on NBAライブベッティング corporate philosophy of "Otsuka-people creating new products for better health worldwide," NBAライブベッティング Otsuka Group is dedicated to contributing to NBAライブベッティング health of people around NBAライブベッティング world.
