Moreover, it was found that an average of 3.3 ± 1.2 drugs was prescribed to be administered through this via per day per patient. Thirteen out of the 43 prescribed drugs had restrictions regarding their administration through feeding tubes. It was found that 86.7% of patients used at least one drug that could interact with enteral nutrition during the time that they remained hospitalized.
