Serum triglyceride levels may be monitored daily and its concentration should not
exceed 3 mmol/l during the infusion of fat emulsions.
Children
Due to limited experience, Omegaven should not be given to premature babies, newborns,
infants and children up to 11 years of age.
Other medicines and Omegaven

any other medicines.

breastfeeding, ask your doctor or pharmacist for advice before taking
this medicine
There is no information on the safety of this medicine during pregnancy or breastfeeding.
This medicine should only be taken during pregnancy and breastfeeding if strictly
necessary.
3. How Omegaven is administered
The medicine will be administered to you by infusion.
The doctor will decide the correct dose for you and the infusion rate. This will depend on your body weight in
kilograms and your body's ability to utilize fats. The infusion will be administered to you in
hospital by a healthcare professional.
The duration of administration should not exceed 4 weeks.
Dosage
Daily dose:
1 ml up to a maximum of 2 ml of Omegaven/kg of body weight = 0.1 g up to a maximum of 0.2 g of fish oil/kg of body weight = 70 ml up to a maximum of 140 ml of Omegaven for a patient with a
body weight of 70 kg.
Maximum infusion rate:
the infusion rate should not exceed 0.5 ml of Omegaven/kg of body weight/hour which
corresponds to 0.05 g of fish oil/kg of body weight/hour.
The maximum infusion rate must be carefully respected otherwise a significant increase in serum triglyceride concentration may be observed.
Omegaven must be administered in association with other lipid emulsions. Based on the
total daily lipid amount recommended of 1-2 g/kg of body weight, the portion of fish oil from Omegaven must constitute 10-20% of that amount.
If you receive too much Omegaven
It is unlikely that you will receive a larger infusion than you should receive as your doctor
or nurse will monitor you during treatment.
For symptoms of overdose see section 4 “Possible undesirable effects”. If you think you have
received too much Omegaven inform your doctor or nurse immediately. If this happens, the infusion will
be stopped immediately. It is possible to continue with a reduced dose. These symptoms
will generally disappear with a reduction in the rate or with stopping the infusion.
If you have any questions about the use of this product ask your doctor.
4. Possible side effects
Like all medicines, this medicine can cause side effects, although not everyone will experience them.

Possible symptoms of metabolic overload must be observed. The cause may be genetic
(different metabolism from individual to individual) or depend on a previous illness.
However, this is observed mainly with the use of cottonseed oil emulsions.
Metabolic overload can lead to the following symptoms:
- Enlargement of the liver (hepatomegaly) with or without jaundice (yellowing of the skin)
- Changes or reduction in some coagulation parameters (e.g. bleeding time, coagulation time, prothrombin time, platelet count)
- Enlargement of the spleen (splenomegaly)
- Irregularity of blood anaemia, low white blood cell count
- Bleeding and tendency to bleed
- Tests for liver function pathologies
- Fever
- Elevated levels of lipids in the blood (hyperlipidaemia)
- Headache, stomach pain, fatigue
- Elevated blood sugar levels (hyperglycaemia)
If any side effect occurs, the infusion must be stopped or, if necessary,
continued at reduced doses.
An overdose may occur leading to lipid overload syndrome.
This can happen when the body has difficulty using fats, due to excess
Omegaven. It can also occur due to a rapid change in conditions (such as kidney problems or infections). Possible symptoms are fever, problems in various organs of the body and coma. All these
symptoms will disappear when the infusion is stopped.
A severe overdose of Omegaven without the simultaneous administration of carbohydrate solutions can lead to metabolic acidosis.
Reporting of side effects
If you experience any side effects, including those not listed in this leaflet, please inform
your doctor, pharmacist or nurse. You can also report side effects directly

Omegaven must be administered in association with other lipid emulsions. Based on the
recommended daily intake of lipids of 1-2 g/kg, the portion of fish oil from
Omegaven should constitute 10-20% of this amount.
Route of administration:
For intravenous infusion via central or peripheral vein.
The vials must be shaken before use. Use only if the emulsion is homogeneous and the container
is not damaged.
If possible, infusion sets that do not contain phthalates should be used for administration. Any
residual contents and mixtures after use must be discarded.
Incompatibilities
When Omegaven is administered with other infusion solutions (e.g. amino acid solutions, carbohydrate solutions) through a common infusion line (by-pass, Y-piece), the compatibility (tolerance) of the solutions/emulsions used must be ensured.
Incompatibilities may occur with the addition of polyvalent cations, e.g. calcium, especially
when combined with heparin (anticoagulant).
Duration of administration
The duration of administration should not exceed 4 weeks.
PHARMACOLOGICAL PROPERTIES
Pharmacodynamic properties
Pharmacotherapeutic category: emulsion for parenteral nutrition
ATC code: B05BA02
The long-chain omega-3 fatty acids present in Omegaven are partially incorporated into the lipids
of plasma and tissues.
Docosahexaenoic acid is an important structural element in phospholipid membranes while
eicosapentaenoic acid is a precursor in the synthesis of a special class of eicosanoids
(prostaglandins, thromboxanes, leukotrienes and other lipid mediators). An increase in the synthesis of
these mediating substances of eicosapentaenoic acid derivatives can help to promote anti-aggregating and anti-inflammatory effects, and is associated with immunomodulatory effects.
The glycerol contained in Omegaven is designated for the use in energy production through
glycolysis or is re-esterified together with free fatty acids in the liver to form triglycerides.
Omegaven also contains egg phospholipids, which are hydrolysed or incorporated into cell membranes, where they are essential for maintaining membrane integrity.
Pharmacokinetic properties
The lipid particles administered with Omegaven are similar in size and elimination to
physiological chylomicrons. In healthy male volunteers, a half-life of triglycerides for
Omegaven was calculated to be 54 minutes.
