Clinical Matrix

Mechanism of Action

Aminosin II 4.25% in Dextrose 25% provides essential amino acids and dextrose for parenteral nutrition. Amino acids serve as building blocks for protein synthesis, while dextrose supplies a source of calories to prevent catabolism. The combination aims to maintain nitrogen balance and support metabolic functions.

Amino acids serve as substrates for protein synthesis and nitrogen balance; dextrose provides caloric energy for metabolic processes; electrolytes maintain fluid and electrolyte homeostasis.

Clinical Dosing

Administer as a continuous intravenous infusion. Typical adult dose: 1.0-1.5 g amino acids/kg/day (equivalent to approximately 23-35 mL/kg/day of AMINOSYN II 4.25% in DEXTROSE 25%) via central venous line. Adjust based on metabolic needs and tolerance.

Intravenous infusion: 500 mL to 2 L per day, administered via central line at a rate not exceeding 1 mL/min for initial 30 minutes, then increase to 2 mL/min if tolerated. Dose based on patient's protein and energy requirements; typical protein equivalent: 4.25 g/100 mL.
