I've been on Zinc Sulfate 10mg/10ml Inj, 10ml for a few weeks now, and I've got to say, it's been a game-changer. I've been on TPN for a while, and my doctor recommended this to boost my zinc levels. Zinc is super important for wound healing, fighting infections, and overall growth. The injection itself is straightforward, but I've had some minor irritation at the injection site. I've been keeping an eye on it, and I'm hoping it improves soon. Anybody else on this treatment have similar experiences? Also, what should I do if I experience more severe side effects?

I'm curious to hear from anyone who has received Zinc Sulfate 5mg/ml Inj, 5ml through an IV. I've been prescribed this medication due to a zinc deficiency, and I'm a bit nervous about the potential side effects. Has anyone else had this injection? What was your experience like? Did you encounter any of the side effects mentioned, such as vein irritation or allergic reactions? Any insights or tips would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance!
