Abstract
Both stability and compatibility of parenteral nutrition solutions (PNS) with drug products are major concerns for clinicians and clinical pharmacists, especially when concurrent administration of PNS with intravenous medications (IVM) is unavoidable. Since the same physicochemical principles apply to both adult's and paediatrics' PNS, concerns about stability and compatibility may still apply to both. However, these concerns are relatively more common in paediatrics and neonatal clinical settings, where limited vascular access can be problematic and the coadministration of PNS and drugs is more common. In neonatal and paediatric populations, there have been few experimental studies and comprehensive evaluations looking at medication compatibility with frequently used PNS. This work is part of a larger research project concerned for compatibility of PNS with commonly used intravenous medication in paediatric and neonates. This paper captures and reviews published data on factors influencing stability and compatibility of parenteral nutrition solutions. This information will help clinicians and clinical pharmacists to understand the principals of the stability and compatibility of PNS, furthermore, it will inform better design of future compatibility studies, as it highlights the complexity of PNS and the multiple factors influencing the stability of PNS, and hence its compatibility with IVM. When preparing, prescribing, and administering the PNS, especially when co-administration with IVM is unavoidable, it is important to take into account the physicochemical properties of the PNS components and IVM as well as administration conditions and environmental factors. These factors should also be considered in the design of the compatibility studies of the PNS with the IVM.

Abstract
Parenteral nutrition (PN) is a life-saving intervention for patients where oral or enteral nutrition (EN) cannot be achieved or is not acceptable. The essential components of PN are carbohydrates, lipids, amino acids, vitamins, trace elements, electrolytes and water. PN should be provided via a central line because of its hypertonicity. However, peripheral PN (with lower nutrient content and larger volume) can be administered via an appropriate non-central line. There are alternatives for the compounding process also, including hospital pharmacy compounded bags and commercial multichamber bags. PN is a costly therapy and has been associated with complications. Metabolic complications related to macro and micronutrient disturbances, such as hyperglycemia, hypertriglyceridemia, and electrolyte imbalance, may occur at any time during PN therapy, as well as infectious complications, mostly related to venous access. Long-term complications, such as hepatobiliary and bone disease are associated with longer PN therapy and home-PN. To prevent and mitigate potential complications, the optimal monitoring and early management of imbalances is required. PN should be prescribed for malnourished patients or high-risk patients with malnutrition where the feasibility of full EN is in question. Several factors should be considered when providing PN, including timing of initiation, clinical status, and risk of complications.

Abstract
Although crucial in improving health outcomes in the preterm infants, parenteral nutrition (PN) is not without risk, especially if handled improperly. A growing body of evidence suggests that components of PN admixtures, including lipid injectable emulsions (ILEs), are susceptible to degradation, including oxidation when exposed to light (ie, photo-oxidation), resulting in the production of reactive oxygen species. Infants, especially those born preterm, are considered more susceptible to consequences of oxidative stress than children and adults. Oxidative stress is associated with bronchopulmonary dysplasia, retinopathy of prematurity, necrotizing enterocolitis, and intestinal failure-associated liver disease. The American Society for Parenteral and Enteral Nutrition (ASPEN) assembled a working group to provide recommendations on clinical practice surrounding photoprotection of PN.This Position Paper reviews the scientific literature on the formation of quantifiable peroxides and other degradation products when PN admixtures and ILEs are exposed to light and reports adverse clinical outcomes in premature infants exposed to PN. Recommendations for photoprotection of PN admixtures and ILEs are provided, as well as the challenges in achieving complete photoprotection with the equipment, supplies, and materials currently available in the US. ASPEN and the authors understand that the full implementation of complete photoprotection may not currently be feasible given current product availability; recommendations provided in this paper serve to represent the goal to which to strive as well as to highlight the importance of product availability to achieve these practices. This paper has been approved by the ASPEN Board of Directors.

Abstract
A stability-indicating HPLC-DAD method for simultaneous determination of all nine main water-soluble vitamins, in addition to two commonly used vitamers, was developed and fully validated in analytical ranges, adjusted to their recommended dietary allowance values. An XSelect CSH C18 column with gradient elution using phosphate buffer and methanol was used for their optimal separation. The results from forced degradation studies along with peak purity tests and response ratios at dual wavelengths for the individual vitamins in all tested samples confirmed the method's stability-indicative nature. The complete developed methodology, including a single sample preparation for the vitamins simultaneous analysis, was applied to their assay in 13 commercial multivitamin preparations, revealing mostly higher amounts than the label claims. The developed method is applicable for stability testing, multivitamin products shelf-life determination as well as routine assay analysis of all water-soluble vitamins in their most common forms, including the analytically most demanding flavin mononucleotide.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Drug incompatibilities may compromise the safety and effectiveness of combined drugs and result in mild-to-serious clinical complications, such as catheter obstruction, loss of drug efficacy, formation of toxic derivatives and embolism. Various preventive strategies have been implemented to overcome drug incompatibilities with limited success. This review presents an innovative approach to prevent drug incompatibilities via isolating the incompatible drugs into nanostructures. KEY FINDINGS Several examples of incompatible drugs may be loaded separately into nanostructures of various types. Physicochemical characteristics and biocompatibility of the nanomaterials that are being utilized to prevent physicochemical incompatibilities should be carefully considered. CONCLUSIONS There is a new era of exploiting nanomaterials in overcoming various types of physicochemical incompatibilities, with additional benefits of further improvements in pharmacokinetic profiles and pharmacological actions of the administered drugs.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The safe administration of parenteral admixtures should be considered under the headings of physical and chemical stability. Vitamins are considered to be most susceptible to chemical degradation. OBJECTIVES To evaluate the protective effect of UV-protected monolayer ethylene vinyl acetate (EVA) bags in comparison with that of EVA bags without UV protection, on the physicochemical characteristics and stability of the light sensitive vitamins in pediatric parenteral admixtures stored under various temperature and light conditions. METHODS Four different parenteral pediatric admixtures (with trace elements and vitamins) in two types of ethylenovinylacetate (EVA) monolayer containers (with - yellow one and without - transparent one UV protection) were assessed. The physicochemical analyses such as visual inspection, pH and potential zeta measurements, lipid globules size distribution and vitamins concentration were performed at 0 h, 24 h, 8 days and 8 days+24 h after the preparation of the TPN admixtures. In order to quantify ascorbic acid, thiamine and pyridoxine levels, HPLC was used. RESULTS No differences (p < 0.05) in physicochemical stability of TPN admixtures were noted between two types of EVA bags, with the compositions assessed; stored 8 days (4 °C ± 2) without light plus 24 h at room temperature and light exposure. However significant differences were noticed in ascorbic acid, thiamine and pyridoxine content after 8 days+24 h in comparison with t = 0. This was noted for both for UV-protected bags and bags without UV-protection, Nevertheless, amounts were still within the pharmacopeial range. CONCLUSIONS Both EVA bags under test (with and without UV-protection) ensure physicochemical stability up 8 days at 4 °C ± 2 °C without light exposure and then 24 h at room temperature with light exposure for the total pediatric parenteral admixtures, intended for home parenteral nutrition. Graphical abstract Scheme of physicochemical analysis of parenteral admixtures.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Because there are almost no standard all-in-one parenteral nutrition admixtures available for infants and children, the aim was to develop standard two-compartment parenteral nutrition bags for different weight categories based on the ESPGHAN/ESPEN (European Society of Paediatric Gastroenterology, Hepatology and Nutrition/European Society for Clinical Nutrition and Metabolism) guidelines. The 1 g/kg/d lipid version for the 3 to 10 kg weight category (PED1) was assessed for short- and long-term physicochemical stability with the ability to add additional electrolytes (PED1+E). METHODS The lipid compartment A and the all-in-one admixture of A + B + vitamins + trace elements were assessed physically by visual inspection, Sudan red test, pH measurement, and lipid droplet size distribution. Chemical stability for compartment A was evaluated by quantitative analyses of non-esterified fatty acids and peroxide content. The glucose-amino acid-electrolyte compartment B was evaluated physically by visual inspection, measuring particle contamination and pH. Chemical stability was assessed by discoloration, quantitative analyses of glucose, and the amino acids L-cysteine, L-tyrosine, and L-tryptophan. RESULTS No phase separation or coalescence occurred, and the mean droplet size diameter did not exceed 0.5 µm. Peroxide content and non-esterified fatty acids concentration of compartment A remained well below the limit of acceptation. No precipitation was detected for compartment B; only a slight yellow discoloration was noted at 80 d. Concentrations of glucose, L-tyrosine, and L-tryptophan remained stable; only L-cysteine decreased significantly from its initial concentration. CONCLUSION The two-compartment PED1 and PED1+E admixtures are stable up to 80 d 2° to 8°C + 24 h room temperature (RT) with an additional 7 d 2° to 8°C + 48 h RT after mixing and addition of vitamins and trace elements.
