1. What is Peditrace Novum and what is it used for
Peditrace Novum is a mixture of trace elements administered to the patient in a drip (intravenous infusion). Peditrace Novum contains five trace elements (zinc, copper, manganese, selenium, and iodine) in very small amounts, which are usually supplied with food. These trace elements are essential for the proper functioning of the body.
Peditrace Novum is indicated for use as a supplement to the basic requirement for trace elements in preterm infants, full-term newborns, infants, children, and adolescents who cannot consume or absorb sufficient amounts of food through enteral nutrition, and therefore need intravenous nutrition (called parenteral nutrition). Peditrace Novum is added to parenteral nutrition containing all the nutrients the body needs.
2. Important information before using Peditrace Novum
When not to use Peditrace Novum:
- if the child is allergic (hypersensitive) to the active substances or any of the other ingredients of this medicine (listed in section 6);
- if the child has Wilson's disease.
Warnings and precautions
Before starting treatment, discuss with your doctor if the child has:
- kidney function disorders;
- liver function disorders;
- reduced bile secretion;
- thyroid function disorders (hyperthyroidism).
During treatment, the doctor will regularly check the content of trace elements in the blood and adjust the dosage of Peditrace Novum accordingly.
Children and adolescents
Peditrace Novum is intended for preterm infants, full-term newborns, infants, children, and adolescents.

Tell your doctor about all medicines the child is taking or has recently taken, as well as any medicines planned for the child.

3. How to use Peditrace Novum
The medicine is administered by medical personnel in an intravenous infusion (drip into a vein).
Peditrace Novum must always be diluted before use in another solution for parenteral nutrition.
The dosage is determined by the doctor individually for each child, depending on their weight and health condition.
In the case of parenteral nutrition lasting more than 3 weeks, it is recommended to administer iron intravenously daily, and to add molybdenum in the case of parenteral nutrition lasting more than 4 weeks.
Using a higher dose of Peditrace Novum than recommended

Information intended for healthcare professionals only:
Special warnings and precautions for use
Peditrace Novum should be used with caution in patients with renal impairment, in whom the excretion of selenium, zinc, and iodine in the urine may be significantly reduced. In these patients, there is an increased risk of accumulation of trace elements in the body.
Peditrace Novum should be used with caution in patients with liver function disorders (especially cholestasis), in whom the excretion of copper and manganese may be reduced.
In patients with impaired bile secretion, there may be a reduction in the elimination of manganese, copper, and zinc. Clinical symptoms of accumulation of these trace elements may require a reduction in dosage or discontinuation of Peditrace Novum in these patients.
In patients with renal and liver function disorders or in the case of mild cholestasis, dose adjustment may be necessary.
Peditrace Novum should be used with caution in patients with hyperthyroidism. In these patients, iodine may exacerbate symptoms of hyperthyroidism (e.g., goiter).
There is no need to adjust the dose of Peditrace Novum when iodine is used in addition as an antiseptic product containing iodine.
Long-term parenteral nutrition
In patients receiving parenteral nutrition for a long period, there may be an accumulation of trace elements, especially manganese. If treatment is continued for more than 4 weeks, manganese levels should be monitored. The occurrence of neurological symptoms (e.g., restlessness, rapid eye movements) may indicate possible manganese overload, which may also result from certain disease states and parenteral nutrition. Manganese accumulation may require a reduction in dosage or discontinuation of Peditrace Novum.
In patients receiving parenteral nutrition for a long time, there may be a deficiency of trace elements, especially copper, zinc, and selenium. In this case, additional supplementation should be ensured.
Dosage
Preterm infants
The recommended maximum dose of 1.0 mL of Peditrace Novum per kilogram of body weight per day meets the basic requirement for the trace elements contained in this medicine.
Full-term newborns, infants, and children with a body weight below 20 kg
The recommended maximum dose of 0.5 mL of Peditrace Novum per kilogram of body weight per day meets the basic requirement for the trace elements contained in this medicine.
Children with a body weight above 20 kg and adolescents
The recommended maximum daily dose of 10 mL of Peditrace Novum meets the basic requirement for the trace elements contained in this medicine.
In 0.5 mL, 1.0 mL, and 10 mL of Peditrace Novum, the following amounts of trace elements are present:
| 0.5 mL | 1.0 mL | 10 mL | |
| Zn | 250 micrograms | 500 micrograms | 5000 micrograms |
| Cu | 20.0 micrograms | 40.0 micrograms | 400 micrograms |

Method of administration
Undiluted Peditrace Novum must not be used. Peditrace Novum is administered in an intravenous infusion after dilution in a solution or emulsion for parenteral nutrition. The rate and duration of the infusion depend on the rate and duration of the infusion of the parenteral nutrition solution.
