sodium bicarbonat 8.4% BOX 20 PCS injection 50ml psi

Sodium Bicarbonate Injection 8.4% is a sterile solution intended for intravenous administration. It contains sodium bicarbonate at a concentration of 8.4%, equivalent to 84 mg or 1 mEq per mL. It is used in hospitals to treat certain cases of metabolic acidosis, help correct acid-base imbalances in the blood, and increase urinary alkalinity in specific medical conditions, as determined by the treating physician and laboratory results.

The product is available in a carton containing 20 vials, each with a volume of 50 mL, for a total carton volume of 1,000 mL.

What is sodium bicarbonate injection used for?

• Helps correct metabolic acidosis in cases where sodium bicarbonate therapy is indicated.

• Helps increase blood bicarbonate levels and raise blood pH.

• Acts as a systemic alkalinizing agent to help correct acid-base imbalances.

• Provides sodium and bicarbonate ions.

• May be used in certain cases of drug poisoning that require urinary alkalinization, according to the relevant medical protocol.

• May be used in specific medical emergencies, depending on the patient's clinical condition and approved treatment protocols.

Sodium bicarbonate Injection dose

• For intravenous administration only, by a physician or qualified healthcare professional.

• The dose and rate of administration are determined according to the patient's age, weight, severity of the condition, blood gas results, and electrolyte levels.

• Do not self-administer. The dose and infusion rate must not be determined without medical supervision to avoid disturbances in sodium levels, fluid balance, and acid-base balance.

Precautions and Warnings

• Use under medical supervision in an appropriate setting where the patient can be monitored.

• Use with caution in patients with heart failure, severe renal impairment, or conditions associated with sodium and fluid retention.

• May cause elevated blood sodium levels or fluid overload, particularly in patients with impaired kidney function.

• Sodium, potassium, and bicarbonate levels, blood gases, and fluid balance should be monitored according to the patient's condition.

• Excessive use may lead to metabolic alkalosis and electrolyte disturbances.

• Rapid administration or large doses should be avoided without appropriate medical monitoring.

• Observe the contraindications and warnings stated in the approved product leaflet.

• Inspect the solution before use and ensure that the container is intact and the solution shows no abnormal changes in appearance.

Side Effects

Side effects may occur, particularly when high doses are administered or the solution is given too rapidly. These may include:

• Elevated blood sodium levels (hypernatremia).

• Metabolic alkalosis.

• Fluid retention or fluid overload.

• Low blood potassium levels (hypokalemia).

• Electrolyte imbalances.

• Edema or pulmonary congestion in susceptible patients.

• Tissue irritation or local complications if the solution leaks outside the vein (extravasation).

Storage

• Store at a temperature between 20°C and 25°C.

• Protect from heat and direct light. Keep out of reach of children.

• The container is intended for single use only. Discard any remaining solution after use in accordance with the healthcare facility's policies.
