Vitamin B Complex & C + 20% Fat Emulsion

Vitamin B Complex & C + 20% Fat Emulsion is a source of calories, essential fatty acids and water-soluble vitamins. Patients who need parenteral nutrition for extended periods, usually more than 5 days, are the ones it's meant for. Vidalin F is part of the intravenous diet in all parenteral nutrition indications. These include preoperative and postoperative nutritional disturbances where an improved nitrogen balance is required. Nutritional disorders or disturbances of nitrogen balance are also covered when intestinal absorption is inadequate or failing. The cause can be tumors in the gastrointestinal tract, or acute or chronic intestinal diseases (peritonitis, ulcerative colitis, terminal ileitis). Burns are another indication, where the aim is to reduce the frequently excessive nitrogen losses. The same applies to prolonged unconsciousness, for example after cranial trauma or poisoning, in cases where enteral feeding is inappropriate or impossible. In impaired renal function, a concentrated source of energy may be indicated to reduce protein breakdown. Cachexia is also listed, along with patients with essential fatty acid deficiency who cannot maintain or restore a normal essential fatty acid pattern by oral intake.
