1. What OligoStandard is and what it is used for
OligoStandard belongs to the group of electrolytes. It is used as part of intravenous nutrition, providing a source of oligoelements for adult patients.
2. Before using OligoStandard
Do not use OligoStandard:
- If you are allergic (hypersensitive) to the active substances or to any of the other components of OligoStandard.
- If you have Wilson's disease (a hereditary metabolic disorder that causes copper accumulation in the liver).
- If you have liver problems, such as pronounced cholestasis (decreased bile in the liver, causing bilirubin levels above 140 mmol/l and elevated levels of gamma-glutamyltransferase and alkaline phosphatase).
- OligoStandard should not be administered to newborns, infants, and children.
Be cautious when using OligoStandard:
- If artificial nutrition is prolonged, manganese levels in the blood should be monitored. If this element accumulates, the dose to be administered should be reduced or administration should be stopped.
- If you have liver failure (liver alteration) and reduced bile excretion (bile duct alteration), as the biliary elimination of manganese, copper, and zinc may be affected, leading to accumulation and overdose.
- If you have kidney failure (kidney alteration), as this may significantly affect the renal excretion of chromium and zinc.
- If you are undergoing medium- to long-term parenteral nutrition, zinc needs should be monitored. An extra supplement of this electrolyte may be necessary.
- If you have insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus (elevated blood glucose levels requiring insulin administration) and chromium deficiency, you may require a reduction in insulin dosage during OligoStandard administration, as chromium deficiency causes decreased glucose tolerance, which improves after chromium intake with OligoStandard.
Diarrhea may cause an increase in intestinal losses of zinc. In this case, serum zinc concentrations should be monitored.
Consult your doctor, even if any of the above circumstances have occurred to you in the past.
Use of other medicines:
Tell your doctor or pharmacist if you are using or have recently used any other medicines, including those obtained without a prescription.
The addition of any medicine to OligoStandard should be specifically monitored, as there may be incompatibility with some of them (see section 6).
Pregnancy and breastfeeding:
Consult your doctor or pharmacist before using any medicine.
If you are pregnant or breastfeeding, OligoStandard will only be administered if your doctor considers it necessary.
Driving and using machines:
No effects on driving ability or machine operation have been described with the use of OligoStandard.
3. How to use OligoStandard
Follow the instructions for administration of OligoStandard exactly as indicated by your doctor. Consult your doctor or pharmacist if you have any doubts.
Your doctor will indicate to the healthcare staff the most suitable dose for your needs. To meet the basic requirements of oligoelements, 10 ml of OligoStandard (1 ampoule) diluted in a compatible solution are infused. This corresponds to the normal daily dose.
In cases of moderately increased oligoelement requirements, higher doses (up to 20 ml, 2 ampoules) may be necessary, monitoring the serum levels of oligoelements.
In cases of significantly increased requirements (such as extensive burns, polytraumatized patients, severe hypercatabolism, and those with intestinal fluid loss), doses higher than the recommended guideline may be necessary.
Administration can be continued during the duration of parenteral nutrition:
- Cautious use is recommended in cases of liver failure (liver alteration), cholestasis (decreased bile excretion in the liver), and/or kidney failure (kidney alteration), as dose adjustment or treatment suspension may be required (see "Be cautious when using OligoStandard").
Whenever possible, any deficiency of an individual oligoelement should be corrected through specific supplements.
If you use more OligoStandard than you should:
Your doctor will stop treatment if laboratory tests confirm an overdose.
4. Possible side effects
Like all medicines, OligoStandard can cause side effects, although not everybody gets them.
No side effects are expected if the administration instructions are followed.
