Aminomix Novum

Aminomix Novum is a standardized parenteral nutrition formula, designed to meet the daily nutritional requirements of nitrogen (amino acids), glucose, electrolytes and fluid in adult and paediatric patients (>2 yrs) in whom oral or enteral feeding is impossible, insufficient or contraindicated.

With its high content of amino acids (50 g per liter) Aminomix Novum suits even the elevated nitrogen requirements of intensive care patients.

The Aminomix Novum nutrition regimen may be complemented by adding a lipid emulsion of choice - in amounts as needed. This allows to flexibly adjust the glucose: lipid ratio of non-protein energy, depending on the individual glucose tolerance of the patient. According to the patients metabolisation capacities, three different variations of Aminomix Novum are offered: Aminomix 1 Novum for patients with high energy requirements, good glucose tolerance and normal electrolyte balance.
