Indications and Usage:
Indications and usage intravenous solutions containing sodium chloride are indicated for parenteral replenishment of fluid and sodium chloride as required by the clinical condition of the patient.
Warnings:
Warnings sodium chloride injection, usp should be used with great care, if at all, in patients with congestive heart failure, severe renal insufficiency and in clinical states in which there exists edema with sodium retention. the intravenous administration of sodium chloride injection, usp can cause fluid and/or solute overloading resulting in dilution of serum electrolyte concentrations, overhydration, congested states or pulmonary edema. the risk of dilutive states is inversely proportional to the electrolyte concentration of the injections. the risk of solute overload causing congested states with peripheral and pulmonary edema is directly proportional to the electrolyte concentrations of the injections. in patients with diminished renal function, administration of sodium chloride injection, usp may result in sodium retention.
Dosage and Administration:
Dosage and administration the dose is dependent upon the age, weight and clinical condition of the patient. additives may be incompatible. consult with pharmacist, if available. when introducing additives, use aseptic technique, mix thoroughly and do not store. parenteral drug products should be inspected visually for particulate matter and discoloration prior to administration, whenever solution and container permit. (see precautions .)
Contraindications:
Contraindications none known.
Adverse Reactions:
Adverse reactions reactions which may occur because of the solution or the technique of administration include febrile response, infection at the site of injection, venous thrombosis or phlebitis extending from the site of injection, extravasation and hypervolemia. if an adverse reaction does occur, discontinue the infusion, evaluate the patient, institute appropriate therapeutic countermeasures and save the remainder of the fluid for examination if deemed necessary. in addition to the above listed adverse reactions hyponatremia has been reported for 0.45% sodium chloride injection, usp (see pediatric use section).

Overdosage in the event of overhydration or solute overload, re-evaluate the patient and institute appropriate corrective measures. (see warnings , precautions , and adverse reactions .)
Description:
Description sodium chloride injection, usp solutions are sterile and nonpyrogenic. they are parenteral solutions containing various concentrations of sodium chloride in water for injection intended for intravenous administration. for 0.45% sodium chloride injection, usp, each 100 ml contains 450 mg sodium chloride in water for injection. electrolytes per 1000 ml: sodium 77 meq; chloride 77 meq. the osmolarity is 154 mosmol/l (calc.). for 0.9% sodium chloride injection, usp, each 100 ml contains 900 mg sodium chloride in water for injection. electrolytes per 1000 ml: sodium 154 meq; chloride 154 meq. the osmolarity is 308 mosmol/l (calc.). the ph for both concentrations in the 100 ml and smaller containers is 6.0; for the 250 ml and larger containers, the ph is 5.6. the ph range is 4.5 to 7.0 for all containers. the solutions contain no bacteriostat, antimicrobial agent or added buffer and each is intended only as a single-dose injection. when smaller doses are required the unused portion should be discarded. the solutions are parenteral fluid and electrolyte replenishers. sodium chloride, usp is chemically designated nacl, a white crystalline powder freely soluble in water. water for injection, usp is chemically designated h 2 o. the flexible plastic container is fabricated from a specially formulated polyvinylchloride. water can permeate from inside the container into the overwrap but not in amounts sufficient to affect the solution significantly. solutions in contact with the plastic container may leach out certain chemical components from the plastic in very small amounts; however, biological testing was supportive of the safety of the plastic container materials. exposure to temperatures above 25°c (77°f) during transport and storage will lead to minor losses in moisture content. higher temperatures lead to greater losses. it is unlikely that these minor losses will lead to clinically significant changes within the expiration period.
Clinical Pharmacology:
Clinical pharmacology when administered intravenously, these solutions provide a source of water and electrolytes. solutions which provide combinations of hypotonic or isotonic concentrations of sodium chloride are suitable for parenteral maintenance or replacement of water and electrolyte requirements. isotonic concentrations of sodium chloride are suitable for parenteral replacement of chloride losses that exceed or equal the sodium loss. hypotonic concentrations of sodium chloride are suited for parenteral maintenance of water requirements when only small quantities of salt are desired. a hypertonic concentration of sodium chloride may be used to repair severe salt depletion syndrome. sodium chloride in water dissociates to provide sodium (na + ) and chloride (cl â ) ions. sodium (na + ) is the principal cation of the extracellular fluid and plays a large part in the therapy of fluid and electrolyte disturbances. chloride (cl â ) has an integral role in buffering action wh
