200 mg / ml infusion solution , emulsion
Refined olive oil and refined soybean oil
1. What Clinoleic is and what it is used for
Clinoleic is an emulsion of olive oil (80%) and soybean oil (20%) for infusion .
Clinoleic is used as a source of energy and essential fatty acids (fats or lipids ) that the body cannot produce itself. Clinoleic is given directly into the bloodstream so that it does not cross the gastrointestinal tract. This method of nutrition is used when solid and liquid foods cannot be ingested due to medical reasons.
2. What you need to know before using Clinoleic
Do not use Clinoleic
- if you are allergic to eggs, soy or peanut protein or any of the other ingredients of this medicine (listed in section 6)
- if you have a high level of fat in your blood (severe dyslipidemia )
- if you have an uncorrected metabolic disorder including lactic acidosis and uncontrolled diabetes .
Warnings and cautions
Special treatment monitoring is required at the beginning of each intravenousinfusion . The infusion must be stopped immediately if you get any abnormal signs or symptoms of an allergic reaction . These symptoms include sweating, fever, chills, headache, rash or difficulty breathing. This medicine contains soybean oil and egg phospholipids. Soybean protein and egg protein can cause hypersensitivity reactions. Cross-allergic reactions between soybean protein and peanut protein have been observed.
Your doctor will monitor and monitor your triglyceride levels (a type of fat found in the blood) and your blood sugar levels.
Some medicines and diseases can increase the risk of developing an infection or sepsis (bacteria in the blood). There is a particular risk of infection or sepsis when a tube ( intravenous catheter ) is inserted into a vein. Your doctor will monitor you closely for any signs of infection . Patients who need parenteral nutrition (nutrition via a tube in a vein) may find it easier to develop an infection due to their medical condition. The use of “aseptic technology” (bacteria-free technology) when the catheter is placed and maintained and when the nutrient solution is prepared can reduce the risk of infection.
Liver disease has been reported in patients receiving intravenous nutritional therapy. If you get symptoms such as nausea, vomiting, stomach pain, yellowing of the skin or eyes, contact a doctor immediately.
Your doctor should know the following:
- serious conditions that affect your body’s ability to handle sugar, fats, proteins or salt (metabolic disorders)
- severe blood infection ( sepsis )
- severe liver disease
- blood clotting disorders
- heart attack ( myocardial infarction )
- heart failure
- kidney failure
- reduction of red blood cells ( anemia )
- fluid in the lungs.
If you become swollen, tender and red where the needle is inserted into one of the blood vessels (veins), you should contact a doctor as it may be a sign of inflammation( thrombophlebitis ).
Your doctor will monitor your condition at the beginning of the infusion , especially if you already have liver, kidney, adrenal , heart or circulatory problems.
To check the effect and continuously monitor that the medication is taking place safely, the doctor will perform clinical and laboratory tests while you are receiving this medicine.

When used to treat newborns and children under 2 years of age, emulsion one (in sachets and administration sets) should be protected from light exposure until administration is complete. If Clinoleic is exposed to ambient light, especially after the addition of trace elements and / or vitamins , peroxides and other degradation products are formed, which can be reduced if the product is protected from light exposure.

3. How to use Clinoleic
Clinoleic contains 200 mg / ml lipids .
Your doctor will prescribe the dose and speed of administration.

When used to treat newborns and children under 2 years of age, emulsion one (in sachets and administration sets) should be protected from exposure to light until administration is completed (see section 2).
If you use more Clinoleic than you should
An overdose of Clinoleic can cause a decrease in your body’s ability to remove lipid s (fat overload syndrome). This effect usually resolves when the infusion of Clinoleic is discontinued (see also section 4, Possible side effects ).
If your doctor or nurse forgets to give you Clinoleic
You should not receive a double dose to make up for a forgotten dose .
If you have any further questions on the use of this product, ask your doctor or pharmacist.
4. Possible side effects
Like all medicines, this medicine can cause side effects, although not everybody gets them.
If you notice any abnormal change at the beginning of infusion one, it should be stopped immediately. These symptoms include sweating, chills, headache and difficulty breathing.
Other side effects that occur more or less frequently have been observed:
The following side effects are common (affects 1 to 10 users in 100) :
- elevated blood sugar level ( hyperglycaemia )
- nausea, vomiting
- lowered blood pressure
The following side effects are uncommon (affects 1 to 10 users in 1,000):
- decreased white blood cell count ( leukopenia )
- difficulty breathing ( dyspnoea )
- swollen stomach (distended abdomen) or pain and discomfort in the area around the abdomen
- yellowing of the skin and eyes caused by problems with the gallbladder (cholestasis) or elevated levels of bilirubin
- Increased levels of liver enzymes or triglycerides are in your blood
The following adverse reactions have also been reported with unknown frequency (cannot be calculated from the available data):
- reduction in the number of platelets in the blood
- overindulge
- allergic reactions including red itchy skin ( urticaria ), itching
- diarrhea
If you have a reduced ability to remove fats that are part of Clinoleic, it can lead to a “fat overload syndrome”. This can be caused by an overdose of Clinoleic, but it can also occur at the beginning of an infusion even if Clinoleic is given according to instructions. The condition is associated with a sudden deterioration of the patient’s general condition. Fat overload syndrome can result in the following:
- Excessively high level of lipids in the blood
- fever
- fat infiltration in the liver
- enlarged liver ( hepatomegaly )
- decreased number of red blood cells ( anemia )
- a decrease in the number of white blood cells and platelets
- problems with the blood’s ability to coagulate
- deep unconsciousness ( coma )All of these symptoms usually go away when the infusion is stopped.
Reporting of side effects
