1. What DIANEAL PD4 is and what it is used for
DIANEAL PD4 is a peritoneal dialysis solution.
It removes water and excess metabolic products from the blood. It also corrects abnormal
concentrations of various blood components. DIANEAL PD4 contains different glucose concentrations (1.36%,
2.27% or 3.86%). The higher the glucose concentration in the solution, the more water can
be removed from the blood.
DIANEAL PD4 is used in the following cases:
- transient or permanent kidney failure;
- significant water retention in the body;
- severe acid-base or electrolyte disturbances in the blood;
- certain types of drug poisoning, when other treatment methods cannot be used.
DIANEAL PD4 is particularly indicated for maintaining normal calcium and phosphate levels in
patients taking phosphate-binding preparations containing calcium or magnesium.
2. Important information before using DIANEAL PD4
When not to use DIANEAL PD4
- If the patient is allergic to the active substances or any of the other ingredients of this medicine (listed in section 6).
- If the patient has severe lactic acidosis (too much acid in the blood) before the first use of the solution.
- If the patient has an abdominal wall or peritoneal abnormality that cannot be surgically corrected or another disorder that cannot be corrected, which increases the risk of peritoneal infections.
- If the patient has documented loss of peritoneal function due to extensive peritoneal adhesions.
Warnings and precautions
Before starting DIANEAL PD4, you should discuss it with your doctor.
Particular caution should be exercised:
- if the patient has severe abdominal wall or peritoneal abnormalities. For example, if the patient has a hernia or intestinal inflammation.
- if the patient has had an aortic graft;
- if the patient has respiratory disorders;
- if the patient experiences abdominal pain, elevated body temperature or cloudiness or particles in the drained fluid. This may be a sign of peritonitis or infection. You should contact the medical team immediately. You should note the batch number of the product and show it to the medical team along with the bag of drained fluid. The medical team will decide whether to discontinue treatment or start corrective treatment. For example, if an infection occurs, the doctor may perform certain tests to determine the most appropriate antibiotic. Until the type of infection is determined, the doctor may recommend taking a broad-spectrum antibiotic.
- if the patient is at increased risk of developing severe lactic acidosis (too much acid in the blood). The increased risk of lactic acidosis may occur due to:
- severe hypotension or sepsis, which may be associated with acute kidney failure;
- congenital metabolic disorders;
- taking metformin (a medicine used to treat diabetes);
- taking HIV medications, especially those called NRTIs (nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitors).
- in patients with diabetes using this dialysis solution, the doses of glucose-regulating medications (e.g., insulin) should be systematically checked. The dose of antidiabetic medications may need to be adjusted, especially at the beginning of peritoneal dialysis treatment or in case of changes in peritoneal dialysis treatment.
- in patients with corn allergy. The infusion should be stopped immediately and the solution drained from the peritoneal cavity.
- the patient - if possible in agreement with the doctor - should keep a written record of fluid and body weight balance. The doctor should systematically check the patient's blood parameters, especially the concentrations of:
- electrolytes (e.g., bicarbonate, potassium, magnesium, calcium, and phosphate);
- parathyroid hormone - responsible for maintaining calcium levels in the body;
- lipids in the blood.
- if the patient has too high or too low calcium levels in the blood. This solution may affect changes in calcium levels.
- You should not use more of the solution than recommended by your doctor. Signs of overhydration include abdominal distension, feeling of fullness, and shortness of breath.
- The doctor will regularly check the patient's potassium levels. If they drop to too low values, the doctor may prescribe potassium chloride to supplement the deficiency.
- A disease called encapsulating peritoneal sclerosis (EPS) is a known, although rare, complication of peritoneal dialysis. The patient and doctor should be aware of the possibility of this complication. EPS causes:
- inflammation in the abdominal cavity;
- thickening of the intestinal walls, which may be accompanied by abdominal pain, abdominal distension, or vomiting. EPS can lead to death.
DIANEAL PD4 and other medicines
- You should tell your doctor about all medicines you are currently taking or have recently taken, as well as any medicines you plan to take.
- If you are taking other medicines, your doctor may need to increase their doses. This is because peritoneal dialysis treatment increases the elimination of some medicines.
- You should be cautious if you are taking heart medications, known as cardiac glycosides (e.g., digoxin). In patients:
- potassium and calcium supplementation may be necessary;
- heart rhythm disturbances (arrhythmia) may occur;
- during treatment, the patient will be under close medical supervision, especially with regard to potassium, calcium, and magnesium levels.
Pregnancy and breastfeeding
If you are pregnant or breastfeeding, think you may be pregnant, or plan to have a child, you should consult your doctor before using this medicine. Your doctor will decide whether treatment is appropriate in this case.
Driving and using machines
This type of treatment can cause weakness, blurred vision, or dizziness. You should not drive vehicles or operate machinery if you experience such symptoms.
