Question

Can glutamine be used to treat neonatal brain hypoxia?

Answer

Glutamine is an acetylated compound of glutamic acid, which can stabilize the metabolic decomposition of nerve cells, maintain good stress function, and lower blood ammonia. It is commonly used in the treatment of hepatic coma, post-traumatic coma, alcohol withdrawal, organic mental disorders, intellectual and memory decline, and mental collapse. For neonates with brain hypoxia caused by preterm birth, glutamine can be used to improve their symptoms. In addition, it is recommended to use neuroglycosaminoglycans, which are currently the most effective drugs for nutritional support of brain nerves. The price of domestic products is about 130 yuan, and the price of imported products is about 180-190 yuan. You can choose to use them based on your economic situation. Wishing for a quick recovery.
