AMINOSYN II 10% IN PLASTIC CONTAINER vs PREMASOL 6% IN PLASTIC CONTAINER
Comparing the clinical profiles, pharmacokinetic behaviors, and safety indices of these two therapeutic agents.
Aminosyn II 10% is a crystalline amino acid solution that provides essential and nonessential amino acids for protein synthesis, maintenance of nitrogen balance, and tissue repair in parenteral nutrition.
Intravenous amino acid solution providing essential and non-essential amino acids for protein synthesis, nitrogen balance, and maintenance of lean body mass. Amino acids are actively transported into cells and incorporated into proteins; also serves as a caloric source.
Intravenous infusion: 7-12 g amino acids per kg body weight per day (0.7-1.2 g/kg/day) for adults with normal renal function; typically administered as a 10% solution at a rate not exceeding 0.5 g amino acids/kg/hour.
Intravenous infusion: 1 to 1.5 g/kg/day (amino acids) as part of total parenteral nutrition; typically 500 mL to 1000 mL per day, infused over 12-24 hours.

Variable depending on individual amino acids; typical of infused amino acids: 0.5-2 hours for most, with clinical context of continuous infusion achieving steady-state within 24 hours.
Amino acids have rapid plasma clearance; elimination half-life varies from minutes to hours depending on individual amino acid; clinically, infused amino acids are cleared within 2-4 hours after infusion cessation.
Amino acids are metabolized; excess nitrogen is excreted renally as urea (70-90%) and to a lesser extent in feces (5-10%).
Renal elimination of amino acids and metabolites; complete metabolism with nitrogen excretion as urea in urine; minimal biliary/fecal excretion.
