Intravenous micronutrients play a key role in maintaining health, especially in patients that are dependent upon parenteral nutrition. As such, it is important for clinicians managing these patients to understand what the function of micronutrients are, how we can give them, and when caution and adjustments may be needed with these important ingredients. This presentation will provide insights on the intravenous micronutrient products available in the United States including considerations regarding medication interactions and disease states in which adjustment of dosing may be beneficial.
Learning Objectives:
- Examine micronutrient needs and how they are met with currently available products.
- Summarize medication interactions with intravenous micronutrient products.
- Identify disease states that may require adjustments to micronutrient dosing.
