About This Product
Product Description

Zinc Sulfate Injection, USP is a sterile, non-pyrogenic solution used as a trace element additive for intravenous solutions in parenteral nutrition. It provides essential zinc to prevent deficiency in patients unable to obtain adequate zinc from oral or enteral sources.

 

Key Benefits:

  • Critical Enzyme Cofactor: Zinc is an essential component in enzymes that support DNA synthesis, protein metabolism, and cell function.
  • Supports Parenteral Nutrition Needs: Used to maintain optimal zinc levels in patients requiring total parenteral nutrition (TPN).
  • Sterile and Preservative-Free: Supplied as a pharmacy bulk package, intended for use only after proper dilution.

 

Dosage and Administration:

Zinc Sulfate Injection must be diluted prior to intravenous administration and used as part of a parenteral nutrition solution:

  • Adults: Typical dose is 3 mg per day for stable patients, with potential increases based on individual clinical needs.
  • Pediatric Patients: Dosage varies by weight and age, generally ranging from 50 mcg/kg to 400 mcg/kg for preterm neonates. Frequent monitoring of zinc levels and clinical signs is recommended to guide dosing adjustments.

 

Why Choose Zinc Sulfate Injection?

  • Essential Trace Element: Zinc is vital for many biochemical processes, including immune function, wound healing, and cellular growth.
  • Proven Efficacy in TPN: Reliable support for patients needing supplementation to prevent zinc deficiency symptoms.
  • Flexible Formulations: Available in various concentrations to suit diverse patient needs and dosing requirements.

 

Warnings:

  • Not for Direct Infusion: This product must be used as an admixture in a TPN solution to avoid irritation or phlebitis.
  • Copper Deficiency Risk: Extended use of high doses may induce copper deficiency; consider monitoring and supplemental copper as needed.
  • Aluminum Content: Contains aluminum, which can accumulate to toxic levels in patients with impaired renal function, especially in premature infants.
