Full Prescribing Info
Description
KIDMIN is a 7.2% amino acid containing large amounts of branched-chain amino acids, such as L-Leucine, L-Isoleucine, and L-Valine which inhibit the breakdown of muscle protein and promote muscle protein synthesis. KIDMIN also contains some non-essential amino acids, except for Glycine, the demand for which is increased in renal insufficiency. The ratio of essential to non-essential amino acids of this solution is 2.6 and each 100 mL contains 1 g of nitrogen with no chloride and a small amount of sodium, and it is thus easy to calculate the nitrogen content of a given dose and to adjust the amount of electrolytes for electrolyte balance.
