Sodium Chloride Injection, USP 0.9%, also known as Saline solution, is a sterile, non-pyrogenic, aqueous preparation of sodium chloride. It is indicated for injection to restore fluid and electrolyte balance in clients. This equal concentration preparation has a pH of approximately 6.5 to 7.5, and its osmolarity is approximately 290 milliosmoles per liter (mOsm/L).
Sodium Chloride Injection, USP 0.9%, can be administered intravenously into a vein, or subcutaneously. It is commonly used in medical settings for treating dehydration, electrolyte imbalances, and diverse clinical situations.
Osmolar Solutions 20%
Mannitol Injection, USP 20%, is a sterile, non-pyrogenic solution of mannitol. It is administered subcutaneously to treat dehydration. The solution is hyperosmotic and exerts its effects by drawing fluids from the intracellular space into the vascular space. This elevates plasma osmolality, which in turn reduces edema formation.
- Frequently used for treating conditions such as: glaucoma, cerebral edema, and oliguria.
- Ensure that the solution is stored in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight.
