- NUTRYELT is used as part of an intravenous nutrition regimen to meet basal or moderately increased trace element requirements in parenteral nutrition.
- NUTRYELT is indicated for adults only.
- It is used in:
- Gastrointestinal disorders (e.g., short bowel syndrome, Crohn’s disease)
- Post-operative recovery when oral intake is not possible
- Cancer patients receiving chemotherapy or radiotherapy with impaired digestive function
- Neurological conditions where oral or enteral feeding is not feasible
- Burns, trauma, or sepsis requiring nutritional support

Pharmacology
NUTRYELT is a balanced parenteral nutrition multi-trace element solution containing nine essential trace elements that helps prevent micronutrient deficiencies and follows international guidelines.
It is a parenteral nutrition solution that delivers essential nutrients directly into the bloodstream, bypassing the gastrointestinal system. The nutrients are metabolized to provide:
- Energy through glucose
- Protein synthesis and tissue repair via amino acids
- Cellular structure and function via lipids and fatty acids
- Metabolic regulation and maintenance of physiological functions through vitamins, minerals, and electrolytes
NUTRYELT supports essential physiological processes such as immune function, cellular repair, and energy production from stored nutrients.
Dosage Administration
Patients with baseline or moderately increased requirements: 1 ampoule (10 ml) of NUTRYELT/day
Patients with significantly increased TE requirements: 2 ampoules (20 ml) of NUTRYELT/day
Diluted in an infusion solution of 250 ml 0.9% NaCl or 250 ml 5% glucose or added to PN mixtures.
After dilution, the physico-chemical stability of the diluted solution has been demonstrated for 48 hours at 25°C protected from light.
Interactions
Drug interactions: Parenteral nutrition may interact with certain medications, particularly those that affect nutrient metabolism (e.g., insulin for glucose control, diuretics for electrolyte balance).
Electrolyte imbalances: Drugs affecting kidney or liver function may also alter electrolyte balance, which should be managed with careful monitoring.
Contraindications
- Children or patients <40 kg
- Severe cholestasis (bilirubin levels >140 µmol/L)
- Hypersensitivity to any of the active substances or excipients
- Wilson’s disease
- Hemochromatosis
- Elevated serum concentrations of any of the NUTRYELT constituents
Side Effects
Hyperglycemia due to glucose content.
Electrolyte imbalances such as changes in sodium, potassium, or calcium levels.
Infections due to intravenous administration.
Liver dysfunction or fatty liver, especially with prolonged use.
Thrombophlebitis at the injection site.
Gastrointestinal symptoms such as nausea or diarrhea during transition to enteral feeding.
Pregnancy & Lactation
Parenteral nutrition should be used cautiously during pregnancy. The benefits and risks must be carefully evaluated, as maternal malnutrition or electrolyte disturbances may affect fetal development. If necessary, it should be administered under strict medical supervision.
Precautions & Warnings
Monitoring required: Regular monitoring of blood glucose, electrolytes, and liver function is essential.
Infection risk: Strict aseptic technique must be followed during intravenous administration to prevent infections.
Fluid overload: Caution is required in patients with renal impairment or heart failure.
Therapeutic Class
Parenteral nutritional preparations
Storage Conditions
Protected from light, store below 25°C.
