Sodium Chloride Injection, USP 0.9%, also known as Physiological saline, is a sterile, non-pyrogenic, aqueous solution of sodium chloride. It is indicated for infusion to restore fluid and electrolyte balance in individuals. This isotonic preparation has a pH of around 6.5-7.5, and its osmolarity is approximately read more 290 milliosmoles per liter (mOsm/L).
Sodium Chloride Injection, USP 0.9%, can be administered intravenously into a vein, or under the skin. It is commonly used in hospitals for managing 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 intramuscularly to increase urine output . The solution is hyperosmotic and exerts its effects by drawing water from the intracellular space into the vascular space. This elevates plasma osmolality, which in turn decreases edema formation.
- Oftentimes 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.
