What the Health Canada label says it is for
INDICATIONS AND CLINICAL USE Multi-12® is indicated for use as a supplement to parenteral nutrition for adults and children aged 11 and above. Its administration helps to maintain plasma vitamin levels and helps to prevent depletion of endogenous stores of the vitamins and development of subsequent deficiency symptoms. It is also indicated where there are increased requirements for vitamins due to stress situations such as surgery, extensive burns, fractures and other trauma, severe infectious diseases, and comatose states. Vitamin therapy should be initiated before development of clinical signs of vitamin deficiency. Patients with multiple vitamin deficiencies or with markedly increased requirements may be given multiples of the daily dosage for two or more days as indicated by the clinical status. https://pdf.hres.ca/dpd_pm/00082180.PDF PM date: OCT 23, 2025 Source product: MULTI 12; DIN 02100606; fetched 2026-09-10 Product monograph posted by Health Canada; excerpt for lookup only.
