Can substances other than Duodopa® be administered through the tube?

0

No, you should not inject any other substance than Duodopa® via the tube! There is a risk that objects, e.g. small tablet fragments or food particles might block the tube, requiring that the tube is changed. It is certainly possible to infuse particle-free liquids, e.g. nutrition formulas via the tube but in this case, this must be done only in the evening when you anyway stop treatment.
