Glucose + Sodium Chloride Infusion - 500ml

Glucose + Sodium Chloride Intravenous Solution 500 ml is a sterile solution for intravenous injection and infusion containing Glucose 5% and Sodium Chloride 0.9% dissolved in Water for Injection. It is used in hospitals and clinics to aid in fluid replacement and to supply glucose, sodium, and chloride, with its administration determined by the patient's condition and specific fluid and electrolyte requirements.

What is sodium chloride and glucose used for?

• Helps replace fluids via intravenous route.

• Provides glucose as a source of energy.

• Contributes to sodium and chloride replenishment when needed.

• Can be integrated into intravenous fluid therapy regimens based on clinical indication.

• Sterile solution formulated specifically for intravenous use.

Directions for Use

• Administered via intravenous infusion only by a physician or qualified medical healthcare professional.

• Infusion volume and rate vary depending on the patient's age, weight, medical condition, fluid and electrolyte needs, and blood glucose levels; therefore, it must not be used or its flow rate determined without medical supervision.

• Inspect the solution and container prior to use; do not use if the solution is not clear or if the container is damaged.

• Intended for single-patient use only in accordance with infection control guidelines.

Precautions and Warnings

• Use under medical supervision, particularly in patients requiring close monitoring of fluid and electrolyte balances.

• Exercise caution in patients with heart failure, renal impairment, or conditions associated with fluid retention.

• Blood glucose levels must be monitored in diabetic patients or those susceptible to hyperglycemia.

• Excessive administration may lead to fluid volume overload or electrolyte balance disturbances.

• Use with caution in the presence of sodium level disorders or conditions requiring sodium restriction.

• Do not administer via intramuscular or subcutaneous routes.

• Do not use if the solution contains precipitates, shows discoloration, or if the container integrity is compromised.

• Ensure compatibility of any additive medication prior to mixing or administering through the same infusion line.

Side Effects

Side effects or complications may occur, especially when administered in large volumes or at an inappropriate infusion rate, including:

• Hyperglycemia (elevated blood glucose levels).

• Hypernatremia or electrolyte imbalance.

• Fluid retention or hypervolemia (increased blood volume).

• Swelling or edema in susceptible patients.

• Local irritation, pain, or inflammation at the infusion site.

• In severe cases, complications related to fluid overload or electrolyte disturbances may arise. The likelihood of these effects depends on the patient's condition, the volume administered, and the infusion rate.

Storage Conditions

• Store below 30°C.

• Store in an appropriate location away from heat, direct sunlight, and out of reach of children.

• Do not use the container if damaged, or if discoloration, particulate matter, or precipitates are present in the solution.

• The intravenous solution is intended for single use only; any remaining portion must be discarded in accordance with infection control protocols.
