Intravenous Fat Emulsion
別名: Intralipid, Liposyn II, Liposyn III
Intravenous Fat Emulsion (IFE) is a specialized hospital-only treatment. * **For Poisonings:** It acts as a "sponge" in the bloodstream to soak up certain severe, life-threatening toxins (like heart medications, local anesthetics, or certain parasiticides). It can be a life-saving rescue therapy when standard treatments fail. * **For Nutrition:** It provides essential calories and fats for pets that cannot eat and require intravenous feeding. * Because it is given directly into the vein, your pet will require hospitalization, an IV catheter, and close monitoring by the veterinary team to watch for signs of infection or fat overload in the blood.
劑量必須由獸醫按你寵物的個別情況決定。切勿在沒有獸醫指導下給予人類藥物或其他寵物的處方藥。

給藥方式

注意事項與禁忌
- Severe egg yolk allergies

- Premature and low-birth weight infants (human black box warning)
- Blood coagulation disorders
- Pulmonary disease
- Renal impairment
- Severe liver damage
- Patients at high risk for fat emboli
- **Strict aseptic technique** and excellent IV catheter care are imperative to prevent sepsis. When used alone, IFE may be given via a peripheral line; when combined with amino acids/dextrose as Total Parenteral Nutrition (TPN), a dedicated central line is required due to hypertonicity. Use with caution in critically ill animals due to potential immunosuppression, exacerbation of pulmonary pathology, and increased infection rates. Blood samples for diagnostics should be drawn *prior* to administration to avoid severe lipemia artifacts (falsely high hemoglobin, MCH, MCHC, and altered bilirubin).
藥物相互作用
- Lipid Soluble Drugs: IFE may act as a 'lipid sink', reducing the free circulating levels and clinical efficacy of concurrently administered lipophilic medications.
