Fructin10%w/v

Fructin 10%w/v is used intravenously as a carbohydrate nutrient. It is converted to liver glycogen and metabolized more rapidly than dextrose without requiring insulin and thus may be used in diabetic patients. Fructin 10%w/v is indicated in patients requiring fluid replacement and caloric feeding. It is better "nitrogen sparer" than glucose.

Intravenous fluid preparations

High Fructin 10%w/v corn syrup (HFCS) is a mixture of glucose and Fructin 10%w/v as monosaccharides. Sucrose is a compound with one molecule of glucose covalently linked to one molecule of Fructin 10%w/v. All forms of Fructin 10%w/v, including fruits and juices, are commonly added to foods and drinks for palatability and taste enhancement, and for browning of some foods, such as baked goods.

Check infusion set and infusion solution prior to use. Pull moderately to tear off the protective cover of the Eurocap. Hold lightly the Eurocap but not the bottle body. Open the flow regulator fully and hold the giving set on the top white area, but not the memorane venting region. Insert the spike of the administration set to the Eurocap and fit the connector of the administration set firmly to the needle. Gradually allow the fluid to flow down to the needletip and close. Remove the protective cover of the needle. Locate the venpuncture site and clean the site with an antiseptic solution, and then insert the needle. Securely tape the puncture site. Securely tape the wings and tubing Start infusion while adjusting drip speed.

Fructin 10%w/v is contraindicated in certain inborn errors of Fructin 10%w/v metabolism, methyl alcohol poisoning, hyperuricemia, liver failure, and lactic acidosis.

Intravenous administration of Fructin 10%w/v may cause lactic acidosis and hyperuricemia.The rapid infusion of Fructin 10%w/v results in facial flushing, abdominal pain and sweating.

Fructin 10%w/v should not be given to patients with hereditary Fructin 10%w/v intolerance. It should be given with caution to patients with impaired kidney function or severe liver damage. Infusion of fluid should be immediately discontinued if rigor arises for any reason during the process. Do not use if the solution is cloudy, contains particles, or after expiry date.

Keep below 30°C temperature, away from light & moisture. Keep out of the reach of children.
