Hyperlite is a concentrate for solution for infusion (which is administered diluted by intravenous route through a drip) used as a supply of electrolytes (salts such as sodium, calcium, magnesium...) during normal parenteral nutrition (feeding directly into a vein).
Parenteral nutrition consists of the administration of nutrients to the body through the intravenous route. It is used in all those patients who are unable to ingest the necessary nutrients orally to cover their nutritional needs, due to the inability to use their digestive system.

- anuria (absence of urine production)
- kidney disorders
- liver disorders
- heart disorders
- fluid accumulation (edema) in the lung or brain.
Use in children:
The composition of Hyperlite does not make its use advisable in children.
