This medicine is a fluid for dialysis treatment ( hemofiltration, hemodialysis, and hemodiafiltration) which is used to remove waste products from the blood when the kidneys are not working. This medicine is used in hospitals during intensive care with continuous kidney replacement therapy (CRRT).<\/p>\n\n\n\n
This medicine is especially used to treat critically ill patients with acute kidney injury who have:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
This medicine can also be used<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The active substances contained in Biphozyl may also be approved for the treatment of other diseases not mentioned in this product information. Ask your doctor, pharmacist, or other healthcare professionals if you have any further questions, and always follow their instructions.
<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Do not use Biphozyl if you have:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n Warnings<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n Talk to your doctor, pharmacist, or nurse before using Biphozyl. Biphozyl should not be used in patients with high blood potassium levels. The potassium content in your blood will be monitored regularly before and during treatment. Because Biphozyl contains potassium, high levels of potassium in the blood may occur shortly after starting treatment. Your doctor will slow down the infusion rate and check that the potassium level has returned to the desired level. If the condition does not resolve, the doctor must immediately stop administering one. A potassium-free fluid may be used briefly to restore blood potassium levels. Because Biphozyl contains phosphate, a high level of phosphate in the blood may occur shortly after starting treatment. Your doctor will slow down the infusion rate and check that the phosphate content has returned to the desired level. If the condition does not resolve, the doctor must immediately stop administering one. Because Biphozyl does not contain glucose, low blood glucose levels may occur during treatment. Blood glucose levels will be monitored regularly. If low blood glucose levels occur, your doctor may use a fluid that contains glucose. Other corrective measures may be necessary to maintain the desired blood glucose level. Your doctor will regularly check the electrolyte and acid\/base parameters of patients treated with Biphozyl. Biphozyl contains hydrogen phosphate which is a weak acid that can affect your acid\/base balance. If a decrease in blood bicarbonate levels develops or worsens during treatment with Biphozyl, your doctor will slow down the infusion rate. If the condition does not resolve, the doctor must immediately stop administering one. The user instructions must be strictly followed. The liquids in the two chambers must be mixed before use. Use only with a CRRT dialysis machine. Use only if the cover and fluid bag are undamaged. All seals must be intact. The use of contaminated fluid may cause sepsis and shock. Use only with a suitable system for extracorporeal kidney replacement. Caution<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n This medicine is calcium-free and may cause hypocalcemia. Infusion of calcium may be necessary. Biphozyl can be heated to 37 \u00b0 C to increase patient comfort. Heating of the liquid before use must be carried out before preparation with only dry heat. Liquids must not be heated in water or in a microwave oven. Biphozyl should be visually inspected visually for particulate matter and discoloration prior to administration. Do not administer if the liquid is not clear or if the seal is not intact. Your doctor will closely monitor the balance between your blood pressure and blood flow (hemodynamic status), fluid balance, electrolyte and acid\/base balance throughout the procedure, including all fluid ( intravenous infusion ) and all fluid withdrawals (urine production), including those not directly related to CRRT. This medicinal product has a hydrogen carbonate content that is in the low direction within the normal range of hydrogen carbonate content in the blood. This is suitable when citrate is used to prevent the blood from clotting because citrate is broken down into bicarbonate, or when pH values \u200b\u200b(measures of the body’s acidity) have been restored to normal. The need for buffer should be evaluated by repeated measurements of the blood acid\/base parameter and examination of the overall treatment. A liquid with a higher hydrogen carbonate content may be necessary. In case of abnormally high fluid volume in the body ( hypervolemia ), the rate of net ultrafiltration prescribed for the CRRT unit may be increased, and\/or the rate of administration of fluids other than replacement fluids and\/or dialysis fluid may be reduced. In case of abnormally low fluid volume in the body ( hypovolemia ), the rate of net ultrafiltration prescribed for the CRRT unit may be reduced, and \/ or the rate of administration of fluids other than replacement fluids and \/ or dialysis fluid may be increased. No specific side effects are expected in children when using this medicine. Elderly patients<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n No specific side effects are expected in elderly patients when using this medicine. Tell your doctor, pharmacist, or nurse if you are taking, have recently taken, or might take any other medicines, including medicines obtained without a prescription. This is important because the number of other medicines can be reduced in the body during dialysis treatment. Your doctor will decide if the dose of any of the medicines you are taking needs to be adjusted.<\/p>\n\n\n\n It is especially important that you tell your doctor if you use any of the following:<\/p>\n\n\n\n Pregnancy and breast-feeding:<\/p>\n\n\n\n There are no documented clinical data on the use of this medicine during pregnancy or lactation. This medicine should only be given to pregnant or lactating women if there is a clear need.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Fertility:<\/p>\n\n\n\n No effects on fertility are expected as sodium, potassium, magnesium, chloride, hydrogen phosphate and bicarbonate are normal components of the body. Biphozyl has no known effect on the ability to drive or use machines. You are responsible for assessing whether you are fit to drive a motor vehicle or perform work that requires sharpened attention. One of the factors that can affect your ability in these respects is the use of drugs due to their effects and\/or side effects. Descriptions of these effects and side effects can be found in other sections. Read all the information in this leaflet for guidance. If you are not sure, talk to your doctor or pharmacist.<\/p>\n\n\n\n <\/p>\n\n\n\n For intravenous use and use in hemodialysis. This medicine should be used in a hospital and should only be given by healthcare professionals. The volume used, and thus the dose of the medicine depends on your condition. Dose one will be determined by the doctor. Always use this medicine exactly as your doctor, pharmacist or nurse has told you. If you are not sure, talk to your doctor, pharmacist, or nurse. It is the doctor’s responsibility to determine if an added medicine can be mixed with this medicine by checking for any discoloration and\/or precipitation. Before a drug is added, it must be confirmed that it dissolves and is stable together with this drug.
