Good Morning All,
 
Just a reminder that Adult multivitamin (MVI) injection is still on backorder, with no estimated release date.
 
Please refer to Jerry's email below regarding how to handle MVI in TPNs.

1. Please collaborate with physicians to switch adult TPN patients to oral/enteral tube multivitamin tablets/capsules, when possible.

2. In non-critically ill patients, please limit MVI TPN additions to MWF only.

 
Pediatric multivitamin (MVI) injection is currently stocked to sufficient levels and no immediate changes in prescribing are needed.
