Clinical information
From the regulator-approved product information. Each section names its source.
How it works
Dextrose is a source of carbohydrate calories and is used to supplement nutrition by providing glucose parenterally. Sodium Chloride restores and maintains extracellular fluid volume and osmolality, while supporting membrane potential, nerve and muscle function, and acid-base balance.

Dosing overview
Only for intravenous infusion. Infusion rate depends on the age, weight, clinical, and metabolic conditions of the patient and concomitant therapy. See full prescribing information for more information on preparation, administration, and dosing considerations.

Contraindications
Dextrose and Sodium Chloride Injection is contraindicated in patients with: Known hypersensitivity to dextrose and/or sodium chloride Clinically significant hyperglycemia Known hypersensitivity to dextrose or sodium chloride. Clinically significant hyperglycemia
Source: US FDA prescribing information
Warnings and precautions
Neonatal Hypoglycemia: Closely monitor blood glucose concentration to ensure adequate glycemic control. Hypersensitivity Reactions: Monitor for signs and symptoms and discontinue infusion immediately if reaction occurs. Hyperglycemia and Hyperosmolar Hyperglycemic State: Use with caution in patients with known subclinical or overt diabetes mellitus. Hyponatremia, Hypokalemia, Hypernatremia and Hyperchloremia: Avoid in patients with or at risk for hypo-/hypernatremia and hypokalemia. If use cannot be avoided, monitor serum sodium and potassium concentrations. Fluid Overload: Avoid in patients with or at risk for fluid and/or solute overloading. If use cannot be avoided, monitor daily fluid balance and electrolyte concentrations and acid-base balance, as needed and especially during prolonged use. Phlebitis and Thrombosis: Remove catheter as soon as possible if thrombophlebitis develops.
