Description
Otsuka Celemin Hepa 8% is a sterile, parenteral solution containing 8% amino acids, formulated for intravenous administration. It is designed to provide nutritional support for animals suffering from liver conditions such as hepatitis and cirrhosis. This formulation supplies essential and non-essential amino acids directly into the bloodstream, which is particularly useful when an animal's digestive system is compromised or when oral feeding is not possible. It is specifically intended for patients with hepatic diseases who may be intolerant of general-purpose amino acid solutions.
Hepatic Support Formulation: This solution contains a well-balanced mixture of pure crystalline amino acids in concentrations optimized for protein synthesis in patients with liver ailments.
Rich in Branched-Chain Amino Acids (BCAAs): The formulation includes a high concentration of BCAAs, which aids in facilitating ammonia detoxification and stimulating the synthesis of proteins in the liver.
Parenteral Nutrition Delivery: As an intravenous infusion, it delivers vital nutrients directly into the bloodstream, bypassing the digestive tract, which is beneficial for animals with impaired gastrointestinal absorption or those requiring bowel rest.
