TRAVASOL 2.75% SULFITE FREE W/ ELECTROLYTES IN DEXTROSE 5% IN PLASTIC CONTAINER vs TRAVASOL 3.5% W/ ELECTROLYTES
Comparing the clinical profiles, pharmacokinetic behaviors, and safety indices of these two therapeutic agents.
TRAVASOL 2.75% SULFITE FREE W/ ELECTROLYTES IN DEXTROSE 5% is a crystalline amino acid solution combined with electrolytes and dextrose. Amino acids provide substrates for protein synthesis, dextrose supplies calories to minimize protein catabolism, and electrolytes maintain acid-base and electrolyte balance.
TRAVASOL 3.5% W/ ELECTROLYTES is a parenteral nutrition solution providing amino acids (3.5% crystalline amino acids) and electrolytes for protein synthesis and maintenance of electrolyte balance in patients unable to meet nutritional needs enterally. The amino acids serve as substrates for protein synthesis, while electrolytes support cellular function and acid-base balance.
Intravenous infusion: 500-1000 mL administered over 1-2 hours per day, adjusted based on electrolyte and fluid requirements. Typical adult dose provides 2.75% amino acids and 5% dextrose with electrolytes.
Intravenous: 500 mL to 2 L per day as part of total parenteral nutrition; infusion rate adjusted to meet nutritional requirements and clinical status.

Amino acids: 15-30 min (rapid redistribution). Dextrose: 1-2 h. Clinical context: continuous infusion maintains steady state.
Amino acids: ~5–10 min for free amino acids (rapidly cleared from plasma); electrolytes: not applicable as they are distributed and eliminated via homeostasis; clinical context: infusion requires continuous monitoring due to rapid clearance.
Renal: >95% of infused amino acids and dextrose metabolites excreted as urea, CO2, and water. Biliary/fecal: negligible.
Renal: 100% of infused amino acids and electrolytes are excreted renally as urea and electrolytes, respectively.
