(2.1, 2.2, 2.3, 2.4, 2.5, 2.6, 2.7, 2.8). 2.1 Preparation Prior to Administration oCLINIMIX is available in three port container configuration and two port container configuration.oThree Port Container: the ports consist of one medication port, one additive port and one outlet port. Additives can be introduced to the container through the medication port and lipids through the additive port on the three port container. oTwo Port Container: the ports consist of one medication port and one outlet port. Additives, including lipids, can be introduced to the container through the medication port on the two port container.oTear protective overwrap at slit and remove solution container. Small amounts of moisture may be found on the solution container from water permeating from inside the container. The amount of permeated water is insufficient to affect the solution significantly. If larger amounts of water are found, the container should be checked for tears or leaks.oInspect the container prior to activation. Some opacity of the plastic due to moisture absorption during the sterilization process may be observed. This is normal and does not affect the solution quality or safety. The opacity will diminish gradually. Evaluate the following:oIf the outlet or additive port protectors are damaged, detached, or not present, discard container as solution path sterility may be impaired.oCheck to ensure seal between chambers is intact, solutions are contained in separate chambers, and the content of the individual chambers is clear, colorless or slightly yellow. Discard if the seal is broken or if the solution is bright yellow or yellowish brown.oCheck for minute leaks by separately squeezing each chamber. If external leaks or leakage between the chambers are found, discard solution as sterility or stability may be impaired. oLipids and/or additives can be introduced to the container after opening seal between chambers. Because additives may be incompatible, evaluate all additions to the plastic container for compatibility. Activate chambers of container prior to introduction of additives. Mix thoroughly when additives have been introduced. Supplemental medication may be added with 19 to 22 gauge needle through the medication port. oCalcium and phosphate ratios must be considered.

Check for leaks.. 2.5 Dosing Considerations oThe dosage of CLINIMIX should be individualized based on the patients clinical condition (ability to adequately metabolize amino acids and dextrose), body weight and nutritional/fluid requirements, as well as additional energy given orally/enterally to the patient. Prior to initiating CLINIMIX the following patient information should be reviewed: all concomitant medications, gastrointestinal function and laboratory data such as electrolytes (including magnesium, calcium, and phosphorus), glucose, urea/creatinine, liver panel, complete blood count and triglyceride level (if adding lipid emulsion). Refer to the complete prescribing information of lipid emulsion for dosing information. oCLINIMIX formulations have varying concentrations of protein and carbohydrate; thus infusion rates to achieve requirements will vary. Protein, caloric, fluid and electrolyte requirements all need to be taken into consideration when determining individual patient dosage needs.oThe dosage selection is based only on the recommended protein requirements. The maximum dextrose infusion rates and calorie and fluid requirements must also be considered when determining the clinically appropriate infusion rate for patients.oCLINIMIX meets the total nutritional requirements for protein and dextrose in stable patients, and can be individualized to meet specific needs with the addition of nutrients.oTotal daily fluid requirements can be met beyond the volume of amino acids solution by supplementing with non-carbohydrate or carbohydrate-containing electrolyte solutions. In many patients, provision of adequate calories in the form of hypertonic dextrose may require the administration of exogenous insulin to prevent hyperglycemia and glycosuria.oPrior to administration of CLINIMIX correct severe fluid, electrolyte and acid-base disorders.oMonitor levels of serum potassium during therapy. It may be necessary to add potassium to the CLINIMIX admixture.oLipid emulsion administration should be considered with prolonged use (more than days) of CLINIMIX in order to prevent essential fatty acid deficiency (EFAD). Serum lipids should be monitored for evidence of EFAD in patients maintained on fat-free parenteral nutrition. See prescribing information of lipid emulsion. oThe flow rate should be increased gradually. The flow rate must be adjusted taking into account the dose being administered, the daily volume intake, and the duration of the infusion.. oThe dosage of CLINIMIX should be individualized based on the patients clinical condition (ability to adequately metabolize amino acids and dextrose), body weight and nutritional/fluid requirements, as well as additional energy given orally/enterally to the patient.

The flow rate must be adjusted taking into account the dose being administered, the daily volume intake, and the duration of the infusion.. 2.6 Recommended Dosage in Adults The recommended daily nutritional requirements for protein and dextrose compared to the amount of nutrition provided by CLINIMIX are shown in Table 1. As indicated on an individual basis, maintenance vitamins, electrolytes, trace elements and other components (including lipids) should be administered as required to prevent deficiencies and complications from developing. The maximum infusion rates in adult patients are show in Table 2.In addition to meeting protein needs, the administration rate should be governed, especially during the first few day of therapy, by the patients tolerance to dextrose. Daily intake of amino acids and dextrose should be increased gradually to the maximum required dose as indicated by frequent determinations of blood glucose levels.Table 1: Nutritional Comparison -Adult Patients Recommended CLINIMIX Adult DosageCLINIMIX 4.25/5CLINIMIX 4.25/10CLINIMIX 5/15CLINIMIX 5/20CLINIMIX 6/5CLINIMIX 8/10CLINIMIX 8/14Fluid (mL/kg/day)19 to 4019 to 4016 to 4016 to 4013 to 3310 to 2510 to 25ProteinProtein is provided as amino acids.

Prior to administration, correct severe fluid or electrolyte imbalances. Closely monitor serum electrolyte levels and adjust the volume of CLINIMIX administered as required [see Warnings and Precautions (5.10)].Chronic kidney disease patients with less than nephrotic range proteinuria require 0.8 of protein/kg/day. Chronic kidney disease patients with nephrotic range proteinuria require 0.8g of protein/kg/day plus 1g of protein for each gram of proteinuria. Patients needing dialysis should receive from 1.2 of protein/kg/day up to maximum of 2.5 of protein/kg/day depending on the nutritional status and the dialysis modality. Serum electrolyte levels should be closely monitored. The CLINIMIX dosage can be adjusted based on the severity of kidney disease, supplementing protein as indicated. If required, additional amino acids may be added to the CLINIMIX container or infused separately. Compatibility of additions should be evaluated by pharmacist and questions may be directed to Baxter.. 2.8 Recommended Dosage in Pediatric Patients. The dosage and constant infusion rate of intravenous dextrose must be selected with caution in pediatric patients, particularly neonates and low weight infants, because of the increased risk of hyperglycemia/hypoglycemia [see Use in Specific Populations (8.4)]. Frequent monitoring of serum glucose concentrations is required when dextrose is prescribed to pediatric patients, particularly neonates and low birth weight infants. The infusion rate and volume should be determined by the consulting physician experienced in pediatric intravenous fluid therapy. In pediatric patients, CLINIMIX is dosed on the basis of protein provided as amino acids. The recommended dosage, by age group is provided in Tables - 6. Infusion rates are based on protein and do not take carbohydrates, fluid or electrolytes into consideration.This product does not contain the amino acids cysteine and taurine, considered conditionally essential for neonates and infants. If possible, these amino acids should be added to this product if used in this pediatric population.Table 3: Preterm and Term Infants Less than Month of Age Recommended CLINIMIX Dosage in Preterm and Term Infants Less than Month of AgeCLINIMIX 4.25/5CLINIMIX 4.2 5/10CLINIMIX 5/15CLINIMIX 5/20CLINIMIX 6/5CLINIMIX 8/10CLINIMIX 8/14Infusion Rate Range (mL/kg/hr)2.9 to 3.92.9 to 3.92.5 to 3.32.5 to 3.32.1 to 2.81.6 to 2.11.6 to 2.1Fluid (mL/kg/day)70 to 9470 to 9460 to 7960 to 7950 to 6738.4 to 5038.4 to 50ProteinProtein is provided as amino acids.

GERIATRIC USE SECTION.


8.5 Geriatric Use Clinical studies of CLINIMIX did not include sufficient numbers of subjects aged 65 and over to determine whether they respond differently from other younger subjects. Other reported clinical experience has not identified differences in responses between the elderly and younger patients. In general, dose selection for an elderly patient should be cautious, usually starting at the low end of the dosing range, reflecting the greater frequency of decreased hepatic, renal, or cardiac function, and of concomitant disease or drug therapy.

LACTATION SECTION.


8.2 Lactation Risk SummaryIt is not known whether CLINIMIX is present in human milk. There are no data on the effects of CLINIMIX on the breastfed infant or on milk production. The developmental and health benefits of breastfeeding should be considered along with the mothers clinical need for CLINIMIX and any potential adverse effects on the breastfed child from CLINIMIX or from the underlying maternal condition.

MECHANISM OF ACTION SECTION.


12.1 Mechanism of Action CLINIMIX is used as supplement of nutrition in patients, providing macronutrients (amino acids and dextrose) parenterally.The amino acids provide the structural units that make up proteins and are used to synthesize proteins and other biomolecules or are oxidized to urea and carbon dioxide as source of energy.The administered dextrose is oxidized to carbon dioxide and water, yielding energy.

OVERDOSAGE SECTION.


10 OVERDOSAGE. An increased infusion rate of CLINIMIX cause hyperglycemia, hyperosmolality, and adverse effects on water and electrolyte balance [see Warnings and Precautions (5.5, 5.10)]. Severe hyperglycemia and severe dilutional hyponatremia, and their complications, can be fatal.Discontinue infusion and institute appropriate corrective measures in the event of overhydration or solute overload during therapy, with particular attention to respiratory and cardiovascular systems. For current information on the management of poisoning or overdosage, contact the National Poison Control Center at 1-800-222-1222 or www.poison.org.

PEDIATRIC USE SECTION.


8.4 Pediatric Use Safety and effectiveness of CLINIMIX in pediatric patients have not been established by adequate and well-controlled studies. Use of dextrose, amino acid infusions and electrolytes in pediatric patients is based on clinical practice [see Dosage and Administration (2.8)].Newborns, especially those born premature and with low birth weight, are at increased risk of developing hypo or hyperglycemia and therefore need close monitoring during treatment with intravenous glucose solutions to ensure adequate glycemic control in order to avoid potential long term adverse effects. Hypoglycemia in the newborn can cause prolonged seizures, coma and brain damage. Hyperglycemia has been associated with intraventricular hemorrhage, late onset bacterial and fungal infection, retinopathy of prematurity, necrotizing enterocolitis, bronchopulmonary dysplasia, prolonged length of hospital stay, and death. Plasma electrolyte concentrations should be closely monitored in the pediatric population as this population may have impaired ability to regulate fluids and electrolytes.Because of immature renal function, preterm infants receiving prolonged treatment with CLINIMIX may be at risk of aluminum toxicity [see Warnings and Precautions (5.8)].Patients, including pediatric patients, may be at risk for Parenteral Nutrition Associated Liver Disease (PNALD) [see Warnings and Precautions (5.9)].Hyperammonemia is of special significance in infants (birth to two years). This reaction appears to be related to deficiency of the urea cycle amino acids of genetic or product origin. It is essential that blood ammonia be measured frequently in infants [see Warnings and Precautions (5.7) ].

PHARMACOKINETICS SECTION.


12.3 Pharmacokinetics The disposition of infused amino acids and dextrose, are essentially the same as those absorbed from ordinary food.

PREGNANCY SECTION.


8.1 Pregnancy. Risk SummaryThere are no adequate or well-controlled studies in pregnant women with CLINIMIX. Additionally, animal reproduction studies have not been conducted with amino acids and electrolytes and dextrose. It is not known whether CLINIMIX can cause fetal harm when administered to pregnant woman.The estimated background risk of major birth defects and miscarriage for the indicated population is unknown. However, the estimated background risk in the U.S. general population of major birth defects is to 4% and of miscarriage is 15 to 20% of clinically recognized pregnancies. Clinical ConsiderationsDisease-Associated Maternal and/or Embryo-Fetal RiskBased on clinical practice guidelines, parenteral nutrition should be considered in cases of severe maternal malnutrition where nutritional requirements cannot be fulfilled by the enteral route because of the risks to the fetus associated with severe malnutrition, such as preterm delivery, low birth weight, intrauterine growth restriction, congenital malformations and perinatal mortality.

Additives can be introduced to the container through the medication port and lipids through the additive port on the three port container. oTwo Port Container: the ports consist of one medication port and one outlet port. Additives, including lipids, can be introduced to the container through the medication port on the two port container.oTear protective overwrap at slit and remove solution container. Small amounts of moisture may be found on the solution container from water permeating from inside the container. The amount of permeated water is insufficient to affect the solution significantly. If larger amounts of water are found, the container should be checked for tears or leaks.oInspect the container prior to activation. Some opacity of the plastic due to moisture absorption during the sterilization process may be observed. This is normal and does not affect the solution quality or safety. The opacity will diminish gradually. Evaluate the following:oIf the outlet or additive port protectors are damaged, detached, or not present, discard container as solution path sterility may be impaired.oCheck to ensure seal between chambers is intact, solutions are contained in separate chambers, and the content of the individual chambers is clear, colorless or slightly yellow. Discard if the seal is broken or if the solution is bright yellow or yellowish brown.oCheck for minute leaks by separately squeezing each chamber. If external leaks or leakage between the chambers are found, discard solution as sterility or stability may be impaired. oLipids and/or additives can be introduced to the container after opening seal between chambers. Because additives may be incompatible, evaluate all additions to the plastic container for compatibility. Activate chambers of container prior to introduction of additives. Mix thoroughly when additives have been introduced. Supplemental medication may be added with 19 to 22 gauge needle through the medication port. oCalcium and phosphate ratios must be considered. Excess addition of calcium and phosphate, especially in the form of mineral salts, may result in the formation of calcium phosphate precipitates [see Warnings and Precautions (5.1)].oInspect the container to ensure precipitates have not formed during the mixing or addition of additives. slight yellow color does not alter the quality and efficacy of this product.

USE IN SPECIFIC POPULATIONS SECTION.


8 USE IN SPECIFIC POPULATIONS. Pediatric Use: increased risk of hypoglycemia/hyperglycemia: monitor serum glucose concentrations. (8.4). 8.1 Pregnancy. Risk SummaryThere are no adequate or well-controlled studies in pregnant women with CLINIMIX. Additionally, animal reproduction studies have not been conducted with amino acids and electrolytes and dextrose. It is not known whether CLINIMIX can cause fetal harm when administered to pregnant woman.The estimated background risk of major birth defects and miscarriage for the indicated population is unknown.

There are no data on the effects of CLINIMIX on the breastfed infant or on milk production. The developmental and health benefits of breastfeeding should be considered along with the mothers clinical need for CLINIMIX and any potential adverse effects on the breastfed child from CLINIMIX or from the underlying maternal condition.. 8.4 Pediatric Use Safety and effectiveness of CLINIMIX in pediatric patients have not been established by adequate and well-controlled studies. Use of dextrose, amino acid infusions and electrolytes in pediatric patients is based on clinical practice [see Dosage and Administration (2.8)].Newborns, especially those born premature and with low birth weight, are at increased risk of developing hypo or hyperglycemia and therefore need close monitoring during treatment with intravenous glucose solutions to ensure adequate glycemic control in order to avoid potential long term adverse effects.

This reaction appears to be related to deficiency of the urea cycle amino acids of genetic or product origin. It is essential that blood ammonia be measured frequently in infants [see Warnings and Precautions (5.7) ]. 8.5 Geriatric Use Clinical studies of CLINIMIX did not include sufficient numbers of subjects aged 65 and over to determine whether they respond differently from other younger subjects. Other reported clinical experience has not identified differences in responses between the elderly and younger patients. In general, dose selection for an elderly patient should be cautious, usually starting at the low end of the dosing range, reflecting the greater frequency of decreased hepatic, renal, or cardiac function, and of concomitant disease or drug therapy.

(5.9, 8.4). oElectrolyte Imbalance and Fluid Overload: patients with cardiac insufficiency or kidney disease may require adjustment of fluid, protein and electrolyte content. (5.10, 8.4). 5.1 Pulmonary Embolism due to Pulmonary Vascular Precipitates. Pulmonary vascular precipitates causing pulmonary vascular emboli and pulmonary distress have been reported in patients receiving parenteral nutrition. In some cases, fatal outcomes due to pulmonary embolism have occurred. CLINIMIX contains no added phosphorus. Patients, especially those with hypophosphatemia, may require the addition of phosphate. To prevent hypocalcemia, calcium supplementation should always accompany phosphate administration. Excessive addition of calcium and phosphate increases the risk of the formation of calcium phosphate precipitates. Precipitates have been reported even in the absence of phosphate salt in the solution. Precipitation following passage through an in-line filter and suspected in vivo precipitate formation has also been reported. If signs of pulmonary distress occur, stop the infusion and initiate medical evaluation. In addition to inspection of the solution [see Dosage and Administration (2.1, 2.2, 2.3, 2.4)], the infusion set and catheter should also periodically be checked for precipitates.. 5.2 Hypersensitivity Reactions. Hypersensitivity/infusion reactions including anaphylaxis have been reported with CLINIMIX. Stop infusion immediately and treat patient accordingly if any signs or symptoms of hypersensitivity reaction develop. Signs or symptoms may include: hypotension, hypertension, peripheral cyanosis, tachycardia, dyspnea, vomiting, nausea, urticaria, rash, pruritus, erythema, hyperhidrosis, pyrexia, and chills.. 5.3 Risk of Infections. Patients who require parenteral nutrition are at high risk of infections because the nutritional components of these solutions can support microbial growth. Infection and sepsis may also occur as result of the use of intravenous catheters to administer parenteral nutrition.The risk of infection is increased in patients with malnutrition-associated immunosuppression, hyperglycemia exacerbated by dextrose infusion, long-term use and poor maintenance of intravenous catheters, or immunosuppressive effects of other concomitant conditions, drugs, or other components of the parenteral formulation (e.g., lipid emulsion). To decrease the risk of infection, ensure aseptic technique in catheter placement and maintenance, as well as aseptic technique in the preparation and administration of the nutritional formula. Monitor for signs and symptoms (including fever and chills) of early infections, including laboratory test results (including leukocytosis and hyperglycemia) and frequent checks of the parenteral access device and insertion site for edema, redness and discharge.. 5.4 Refeeding Syndrome. Refeeding severely undernourished patients may result in refeeding syndrome, characterized by the intracellular shift of potassium, phosphorus, and magnesium as the patient becomes anabolic. Thiamine deficiency and fluid retention may also develop. To prevent these complications, monitor severely undernourished patients and slowly increase nutrient intakes.. 5.5 Hyperglycemia or Hyperosmolar Hyperglycemic State. When using CLINIMIX in patients with diabetes mellitus, impaired glucose tolerance may worsen hyperglycemia. Administration of dextrose at rate exceeding the patients utilization rate may lead to hyperglycemia, coma, and death. Patients with dehydration, resulting in transient reduction in glomerular filtration rate and pre-renal azotemia, may be greater risk of developing hyperosmolar hyperglycemic state. Monitor blood glucose levels and treat hyperglycemia to maintain optimum levels while administering CLINIMIX. Insulin may be administered or adjusted to maintain optimal blood glucose levels during CLINIMIX administration.. 5.6 Vein Damage and Thrombosis. Solutions with osmolarity of 900 mOsm/L or greater must be infused through central catheter. CLINIMIX solutions containing more than 5% dextrose have an osmolarity greater than or equal to 900 mOsm/L. CLINIMIX 4.25/10, 5/15, 5/20, 8/10 and 8/14 are indicated for administration into central vein only, such as the superior vena cava [see Dosage and Administration (2.2)]. The infusion of hypertonic nutrient injections into peripheral vein may result in vein irritation, vein damage, and/or thrombosis.CLINIMIX 4.25/5 and 6/5 are indicated for peripheral administration, or may be infused into central vein [see Dosage and Administration (2.2)]. The primary complication of peripheral access is venous thrombophlebitis, which manifests as pain, erythema, tenderness or palpable cord. Remove the catheter as soon as possible, if thrombophlebitis develops.. 5.7 Hepatobiliary Disorders. Hepatobiliary disorders are known to develop in some patients without preexisting liver disease who receive parenteral nutrition, including cholecystitis, cholelithiasis, cholestasis, hepatic steatosis, fibrosis and cirrhosis, possibly leading to hepatic failure. The etiology of these disorders is thought to be multifactorial and may differ between patients. Increase in blood ammonia levels and hyperammonemia may occur in patients receiving amino acid solutions. In some patients this may indicate hepatic insufficiency or the presence of an inborn error of amino acid metabolism [see Contraindications (4) .]Monitor liver function parameters and ammonia levels. Patients developing signs of hepatobiliary disorders should be assessed early by clinician knowledgeable in liver diseases in order to identify possible causative and contributory factors, and possible therapeutic and prophylactic interventions.. 5.8 Aluminum Toxicity. CLINIMIX contains no more than 25 mcg/L of aluminum. The aluminum contained in CLINIMIX may reach toxic levels with prolonged administration in patients with impaired kidney function. Preterm infants are at greater risk because their kidneys are immature, and they require large amounts of calcium and phosphate solutions, which contain aluminum. Patients with impaired kidney function, including preterm infants, who receive parenteral levels of aluminum at greater than to mcg/kg/day, accumulate aluminum at levels associated with central nervous system and bone toxicity. Tissue loading may occur at even lower rates of administration.. 5.9 Risk of Parenteral Nutrition Associated Liver Disease Parenteral Nutrition Associated Liver Disease (PNALD) has been reported in patients who receive parenteral nutrition for extended periods of time, especially preterm infants, and can present as cholestasis or steatohepatitis. The exact etiology is unknown and is likely multifactorial. If CLINIMIX treated patients develop liver test abnormalities consider discontinuation or dosage reduction.. 5.10 Electrolyte Imbalance and Fluid Overload Patients with abnormal renal function due to pre-renal azotemia, renal obstruction, or intrinsic kidney disease may be at increased risk of electrolyte and fluid volume imbalance. Patients with cardiac insufficiency due to left ventricular systolic dysfunction are susceptible to excess fluid accumulation. Use CLINIMIX with caution in patients with cardiac insufficiency or kidney disease. CLINIMIX dosage may require adjustment with specific attention to fluid, protein, and electrolyte content in these patients.Monitor renal function parameters. Patients developing signs of kidney disease should be assessed early by clinician knowledgeable in kidney disease in order to determine the appropriate CLINIMIX dosage and other treatment options.. 5.11 Monitoring/Laboratory Tests Monitor fluid and electrolyte status, serum osmolarity, blood glucose, liver and kidney function, blood count and coagulation parameters throughout treatment. Patients receiving CLINIMIX should be monitored frequently and their electrolyte requirements individualized.
