                                Incompatibility between calcium and phosphate in Total Parenteral Nutrition (TPN) has tragically led to patient deaths, emphasizing the critical importance of adhering to safety limits. Knowing the maximum phosphate in TPN is vital for preventing potentially lethal calcium-phosphate precipitation, a complex and dangerous issue for compounding pharmacists and clinicians.
