Our purpose to save lives drew us to our first indication: Therapeutic Drug Monitoring of Vancomycin
Vancomycin is a difficult to dose antibiotic commonly used in the critical care setting. It has a narrow therapeutic window, high toxicity, and clinicians get very little information to dose it accurately
Vancomycin is the most administered IV antibiotic in US hospitals 2

Nutromics’ patch will revolutionize clinicians' ability to keep patients in the therapeutic range, improving efficacy and minimizing toxic overdoses
Our solutions
Vancomycin is an antibiotic used as a first-line treatment for life-threatening infections such as sepsis and methicillin-resistant staphylococcus aureus (MRSA)
Our long-term vision is one patch for every patient
In the future, Nutromics will tackle some of the deadliest disease states in the hospital setting.

Therapeutic Drug Monitoring
Nutromics will go deeper into the TDM vertical with other drugs
Acute Kidney Injury
AKI is one of the Top 10 killers in hospitals5. Several therapeutic drugs are cleared by the kidneys, contributing to the problem
Sepsis
Sepsis is a fast-moving disease state that causes 11 million deaths globally every year6. Vancomycin is commonly used to treat sepsis.
