⏳ Availability & generic status
We did not find an FDA-approved generic match for this exact strength, form and route. Patent/protection dates below may affect future generic timing.
Why the date isn’t exact: Generic timing can change because patents may be challenged, settled, licensed, added, removed, or worked around with a narrower label — and FDA approval does not always mean a pharmacy can get the generic today.
🛈 What do these terms mean?
- Patent
- Legal protection listed in the Orange Book that may delay generic approval or launch. Issued by the U.S. Patent & Trademark Office.
- Substance patent
- Covers the active drug molecule itself — the hardest to design around. A generic generally can’t launch until it expires.
- Formulation (product) patent
- Covers a specific formulation or dosage form. A generic can sometimes work around it with a different formulation.
- Method-of-use patent
- A patent covering one specific approved use of the drug — not necessarily the whole molecule. A generic can sometimes launch with a “skinny label” that carves out the protected use and keeps the others.
- Skinny label
- A generic label that omits a still-patented use when the FDA allows it — letting a generic reach the market for the unprotected uses.
- Exclusivity
- FDA-granted marketing protection, separate from patents — e.g. 5-yr new chemical entity, 7-yr orphan drug, or a +6-month pediatric extension.
- Paragraph IV
- A generic applicant’s formal challenge to a listed patent. It can potentially lead to earlier generic entry, but often involves litigation or a settlement.
- RLD / RS
- Reference Listed Drug — the brand product the FDA uses as the reference for generic applications. Reference Standard — the product the FDA expects generics to compare against in bioequivalence testing.
- TE / AB rating
- FDA therapeutic-equivalence rating. An AB rating generally means the FDA considers a generic therapeutically equivalent to — and substitutable for — the brand.
- LOE (loss of exclusivity)
- The latest patent or exclusivity currently listed — the loss-of-exclusivity / latest-listed-protection date shown on this page. Paragraph-IV challenges and settlements can move the real date earlier; FDA approval and a manufacturer’s decision to market can move it later.
Built from the FDA Orange Book. The bars above are scaled to each protection’s expiry; the red LOE marker is the last one to lapse.

🎯 Indications and Usage ▾
1 INDICATIONS AND USAGE Multrys is indicated in neonatal and pediatric patients weighing less than 10 kg as a source of zinc, copper, manganese, and selenium for parenteral nutrition when oral or enteral nutrition is not possible, insufficient, or contraindicated. Multrys is a combination of trace elements (zinc sulfate, cupric sulfate, manganese sulfate, and selenious acid) indicated in neonatal and pediatric patients weighing less than 10 kg as a source of zinc, copper, manganese, and selenium for parenteral nutrition when oral or enteral nutrition is not possible, insufficient, or contraindicated.
( 1 )
⏱️ Dosage and Administration ▾
2 DOSAGE AND ADMINISTRATION Single-dose vial, for admixture use only. ( 2.1 ) See full prescribing information for information on preparation, administration and general dosing considerations. ( 2.1 , 2.2 , 2.3 , 2.4 ) Recommended Dosage Each mL of Multrys provides zinc 1,000 mcg, copper 60 mcg, manganese 3 mcg, and selenium 6 mcg.
( 2.5 ) Multrys is recommended only for pediatric patients who require supplementation with all four of the individual trace elements (i.e., zinc, copper, manganese, and selenium) to meet daily requirements. ( 2.5 ) Pediatric Patients 0.4 kg to 0.59 kg : The total recommended dosage of Multrys is 0.2 mL every other day .Daily supplementation of Zinc Sulfate, Cupric Chloride and Selenious Acid will be needed to meet daily requirements. ( 2.5 ) Pediatric Patients 0.6 kg to 10 kg : The recommended dosage of Multrys is 0.3 mL/kg/day rounded to the nearest 0.1 mL for up to a maximum of 1 mL per day.
The recommended volume of Multrys to be added to parenteral nutrition ranges from 0.2 mL per day to 1 mL per day based on body weight. ( 2.5 ) Multrys is not recommended for patients who may require a lower dosage of one or more of the individual trace elements. ( 2.5 ) Monitor trace element concentrations in blood during long-term administration of parenteral nutrition.
( 2.5 )
2.1Important Administration Information Multrys is supplied as a single-dose vial for admixture use only. Prior to administration, Multrys must be transferred to a separate parenteral nutrition container and used as an admixture in parenteral nutrition solution. The final parenteral nutrition solution is for intravenous infusion into a central or peripheral vein.
The choice of a central or peripheral venous route should depend on the osmolarity of the final infusate. Solutions with osmolarity of 900 mOsmol/L or greater must be infused through a central catheter [see Warnings and Precautions ( 5.2 )] .
2.2Preparation and Administration Instructions Multrys is for admixture use only.Prior to administration, Multrys must be prepared and used as an admixture in parenteral nutrition solution. Add Multrys to the parenteral nutrition solution in a suitable work area such as a laminar flow hood (or an equivalent clean air compounding area).The key factor in the preparation is careful aseptic technique to avoid inadvertent touch contamination during mixing of solutions and addition of other nutrients. Inspect the parenteral nutrition solution containing Multrys for particulate matter before admixing, after admixing, and prior to administration.
2.3Preparation Instructions for Admixing Using a Parenteral Nutrition Container Inspect Multrys single-dose vial for particulate matter. Transfer Multrys to the parenteral nutrition container after the admixture of amino acids, dextrose, lipid emulsion (if added), and electrolyte solutions is prepared. Because additives may be incompatible, evaluate all additions to the parenteral nutrition container for compatibility and stability of the resulting preparation.Consult with a pharmacist, if available.For introducing additives to the parenteral nutrition container, use aseptic technique.
An interaction may occur between cupric ion and ascorbic acid; therefore, multivitamin additives should be added to the admixed parenteral nutrition solution shortly before infusion. Inspect the final parenteral nutrition solution containing Multrys to ensure that: Precipitates have not formed during mixing or addition of additives. The emulsion has not separated, if lipid emulsion has been added.Separation of the emulsion can be visibly identified by a yellowish streaking or the accumulation of yellowish droplets in the admixed emulsion.
Discard if any precipitates are observed. Stability and Storage Single dose vial.Discard any unused portion. Penetrate vial closure only one time with a suitable sterile transfer device or dispensing set that allows measured dispensing of the contents.

⛔ Contraindications ▾
4 CONTRAINDICATIONS Multrys is contraindicated in patients with hypersensitivity to zinc or copper [see Warnings and Precautions ( 5.7 )]. Hypersensitivity to zinc or copper ( 4, 5.7 )
⚠️ Warnings and Cautions ▾
5 WARNINGS AND PRECAUTIONS Pulmonary Embolism due to Pulmonary Vascular Precipitates : If signs of pulmonary distress occur, stop the infusion and initiate a medical evaluation. ( 5.1 ) Vein Damage and Thrombosis :Solutions with osmolarity of 900 mOsmol/L or more must be infused through a central catheter. ( 2.1 , 5.2 ) Neurologic Toxicity with Manganese :Monitor for clinical signs and symptoms of neurotoxicity, whole blood manganese concentrations, and liver function tests in patients receiving long-term Multrys.Discontinue Multrys and consider brain magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) if toxicity is suspected.
( 5.3 ) Hepatic Accumulation of Copper and Manganese :Assess for development of hepatic accumulation.Monitor concentrations of copper and manganese in patients with cholestasis or cirrhosis receiving Multrys long-term. ( 5.4 ) Aluminum Toxicity : Increased risk in patients with renal impairment, including preterm infants. ( 5.5 ) Monitoring and Laboratory Tests : Monitor zinc, copper, and selenium serum concentrations, whole blood manganese concentration, fluid and electrolyte status, serum osmolarity, blood glucose, liver and kidney function, blood count, and coagulation parameters.
( 5.6 , 2.4 ) Hypersensitivity Reactions with Zinc and Copper : If reactions occur, discontinue Multrys and initiate appropriate medical treatment. ( 5.7 )
5.1Pulmonary Embolism due to Pulmonary Vascular Precipitates Pulmonary vascular precipitates causing pulmonary vascular emboli and pulmonary distress have been reported in patients receiving parenteral nutrition. The cause of precipitate formation has not been determined in all cases; however, in some fatal cases, pulmonary emboli occurred as a result of calcium phosphate precipitates. Precipitation has occurred following passage through an in-line filter; in vivo precipitate formation may also have occurred.
If signs of pulmonary distress occur, stop the parenteral nutrition infusion and initiate a medical evaluation. In addition to inspection of the solution [see Dosage and Administration ( 2.2 , 2.3 )] , the infusion set and catheter should also periodically be checked for precipitates.
5.2Vein Damage and Thrombosis Multrys must be prepared and used as an admixture in parenteral nutrition solution. It is not for direct intravenous infusion. In addition, consider the osmolarity of the final parenteral nutrition solution in determining peripheral versus central administration.
Solution with an osmolarity of 900 mOsmol/L or greater must be infused through a central catheter [see Dosage and Administration ( 2.1 )] . The infusion of hypertonic nutrient solution into a peripheral vein may result in vein irritation, vein damage, and/or thrombosis. The primary complication of peripheral access is venous thrombophlebitis, which manifests as pain, erythema, tenderness or a palpable cord.
Remove the catheter as soon as possible, if thrombophlebitis develops.
5.3Neurologic Toxicity with Manganese Pediatric patients on long-term parenteral nutrition receiving manganese at higher than recommended dosages and pediatric patients with cholestatic liver disease have experienced manganese accumulation in the basal ganglia. Some adult patients with brain MRI findings reportedly experienced neuropsychiatric symptoms, including changes in mood or memory, seizures and/or parkinsonian-like tremors, dysarthria, mask-face, and halting gait. Some pediatric patients experienced dystonic movements or seizures.
Brain MRI findings and clinical symptoms have also been observed in patients who received manganese at or below the recommended dosage and with normal blood manganese concentrations. Regression of symptoms and brain MRI findings have occurred over weeks to months following discontinuation of manganese in most patients but have not always completely resolved. Monitor patients receiving long-term parenteral nutrition solutions containing Multrys for neurologic signs and symptoms and routinely monitor whole b…

8 USE IN SPECIFIC POPULATIONS This section intentionally left blank. ( 8 )
8.4Pediatric Use Multrys is approved for use in neonatal and pediatric patients weighing less than 10 kg as a source of zinc, copper, manganese, and selenium for parenteral nutrition when oral or enteral nutrition is not possible, insufficient, or contraindicated. Safety and dosing recommendations in pediatric patients less than 10 kg are based on published literature describing controlled studies of products containing zinc, copper, manganese, and selenium [see Dosage and Administration ( 2.5) ] .
8.6Hepatic Impairment Copper is primarily excreted in the bile. Excretion is decreased in patients with cholestasis and/or cirrhosis. Manganese is presumed to be excreted in bile [see Clinical Pharmacology ( 12.3 )] .
Hepatic accumulation of copper and manganese has been reported with long-term administration of parenteral nutrition at dosages higher than recommended [see Warnings and Precautions ( 5.4)] . For patients with cholestasis or cirrhosis, monitor hepatic and biliary function during long-term administration of Multrys. If a patient develops signs or symptoms of hepatobiliary disease during use of Multrys, obtain serum concentrations of copper and ceruloplasmin as well as manganese whole blood concentrations; consider using individual trace element products in these patients.
🧒 Pediatric Use ▾
8.4Pediatric Use Multrys is approved for use in neonatal and pediatric patients weighing less than 10 kg as a source of zinc, copper, manganese, and selenium for parenteral nutrition when oral or enteral nutrition is not possible, insufficient, or contraindicated. Safety and dosing recommendations in pediatric patients less than 10 kg are based on published literature describing controlled studies of products containing zinc, copper, manganese, and selenium [see Dosage and Administration ( 2.5) ] .
🆘 Overdosage ▾
10 OVERDOSAGE There is no information on overdose-related toxicity with a fixed-combination trace element product. However, there are reports on overdosage in the literature for the individual trace elements. Management of overdosage is supportive care based on presenting signs and symptoms.
Obtain blood samples for laboratory testing of the individual trace elements and ceruloplasmin for copper. Zinc Acute zinc toxicity was reported in an infant who received an inadvertent 1,000-fold overdose of zinc in parenteral nutrition that led to cardiac failure and death. Zinc toxicity in adult patients receiving 17 to 400-fold the recommended dosage in parenteral nutrition for 2.5 to 60 days reported signs and symptoms including vomiting, diarrhea, hyperamylasemia, thrombocytopenia, and anemia.
The zinc serum concentration was 2 to 30-fold the upper end of the reported range in healthy subjects in these cases. Copper Acute copper toxicity was reported in patients with oral, intravenous, or subcutaneous administration. Clinical manifestations included metallic taste, nausea, vomiting, abdominal pain, and multi-organ failure involving kidney, liver, blood, and cardiovascular systems.
Chelating agents can be used for treatment of acute toxicity. Long-term administration of parenteral copper above recommended dosage may result in significant accumulation of copper in the liver, brain, and other tissues with possible organ damage [see Warnings and Precautions ( 5.4 )] . Manganese Acute manganese toxicity was reported in adult patients following infusion of manganese more than 10,000-fold the recommended dosage and after use of dialysis fluid contaminated with manganese.
Signs and symptoms included skin flushing, acute pancreatitis, elevated whole blood manganese concentrations, and MRI evidence of brain accumulation of manganese. Chronic infusion and oral intake of manganese above recommended dosage have resulted in neuropsychiatric symptoms and MRI evidence of brain accumulation of manganese [see Warnings and Precautions (5.3)] . Selenium Acute selenium toxicity was reported with oral overdosage of greater than 1 g/day.
Symptoms included nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, abdominal pain, garlic breath odor, and altered mental status. Death from circulatory collapse was reported after oral ingestion of 5 to 10 g of selenium with blood concentrations ranging 10 to 50-fold the upper end of the reported range in healthy subjects.
🧬 Clinical Pharmacology ▾
12 CLINICAL PHARMACOLOGY
12.1Mechanism of Action Zinc Zinc functions as a cofactor of various enzymes including DNA polymerases, RNA polymerases, alcohol dehydrogenase, and alkaline phosphatases. Zinc is a coordinator of protein structural folding that interacts with a variety of proteins, lipids, and nucleic acids. In addition, zinc is a catalyst of essential biochemical reactions, including activation of substrates of carbonic anhydrase in erythrocyte.
Copper Copper is a cofactor for many metalloenzymes acting as an oxidase to achieve reduction of molecular oxygen. Examples of copper metalloenzymes include but are not limited to lysyl oxidase, monoamine oxidase, ferroxidase, cytochrome C oxidase, dopamine beta monooxygenase, tyrosinase, and superoxide dismutase. Manganese Manganese is essential for the normal catalytic activity of several metalloenzymes including manganese superoxide dismutase, arginase, glutamine synthetase, phosphoenolpyruvate decarboxylase, and pyruvate carboxylase.
Manganese contributes to the normal function of several other enzyme families including the oxidoreductases, transferases, hydrolases, lyases, isomerases, and ligases. Selenium Selenious acid is converted in vivo to hydrogen selenide via glutathione-involved electron reductions. Hydrogen selenide acts as a selenium pool to form selenoproteins which include, but are not limited to, glutathione peroxidase, iodothyronine deiodinase, peroxidase, and thioredoxins.
12.2Pharmacodynamics The exposure-response relationship and the time course of pharmacodynamic response are unknown for zinc, copper, manganese, and selenium.
12.3Pharmacokinetics Zinc Over 85% of total body zinc is found in skeletal muscle and bone. In blood, zinc is mainly localized within erythrocytes. Approximately 80% of serum zinc is bound to albumin and the remainder to α-2-macroglobulin and amino acids.
In adults, zinc is primarily excreted via the gastrointestinal tract and eliminated in the feces. A smaller amount of zinc is excreted via the kidneys in the urine. Urinary zinc excretion rates in very low birth weight preterm infants are relatively high in the neonatal period, and they decline to a level on a body weight basis that is similar to that of normal adults by two months of age.
Copper In plasma, about 7% of copper is bound to albumin and amino acids. In the liver, about 93% of copper is bound to ceruloplasmin and released to the serum. Copper is excreted in bile and into the gastrointestinal tract where it is not reabsorbed.
Copper is also eliminated through the kidneys. Manganese Manganese is widely distributed in body tissues including liver and specific brain regions such as the basal ganglia. The concentrations of manganese are higher in erythrocytes compared to the plasma or serum concentrations.
In human plasma, manganese is bound to albumin and β 1 -globulin. Manganese is found in human bile suggesting biliary excretion. Selenium In humans, 85% of intravenous administered 75 Se-sodium selenite was protein-bound within 4 to 6 hours and 95% by 24 hours.
