The provision of high amounts of calcium and phosphate in parenteral nutrition (PN) solution for neonates is important for bone mass accretion. Because of the risk of calcium phosphate precipitation, a well‐documented incompatibility for inorganic salts, the concentrations of these electrolytes in PN are generally limited to 5 mmol/L. The aim of this study was to assess the risk of precipitation of calcium phosphate when organic calcium and phosphate salts are used instead of inorganic salts. Precipitation curves were determined for inorganic and organic calcium and phosphate salts in a PN solution favorable to precipitation (low concentration of amino acids and glucose) using visual inspection and particle counts. The use of organic phosphate salt was associated with a decreased risk of precipitation of calcium phosphate. No precipitation occurred up to a concentration of 50 mmol/L of calcium and phosphate. In contrast, organic calcium salt only slightly decreased the risk of precipitation. Up to 50 mmol/L of organic calcium and phosphate salts can be safely mixed in PN, even in unstable conditions, making it possible to follow the current European recommendations for requirements in neonates.
