- Since this drug is absorbed through the skin and may harm an unborn baby, women who are pregnant or who may become pregnant should not handle this medication.
Overview
Intravenously (usually drip). The required dose can be calculated Sea mEq or mmol of sodium, mass of sodium ions or mass of sodium chloride (1 g NaCl = 394 mg, 17.1 mEq or 17.1 mmol of Na and Cl).
The dose Otrivin determined depending on the condition of the patient, the loss of body fluid, Na + and Cl- age, body weight of the patient. Serum plasma and urine electrolyte concentrations should be carefully monitored.
The dose of sodium chloride solution for adults is from 500 ml to 3 liters per day.
The dose of sodium chloride solution for children is from 20 ml to 100 ml per day per kg body weight (depending on age and total body weight). The rate of administration depends on the condition of the patient.
The recommended dose when used to dilute and dissolve parenteral-administered drugs (as a base solvent solution) is in the range from 50 ml to 250 ml per dose of the drug administered. In this case, the dose and rate of administration of the solution are determined by the recommendations for the use of the drug administered.
Side effect
Acidosis, hyperhydration, hypokalemia.
When used correctly, undesirable effects are unlikely.
When using sodium chloride solution of 0.9% as a base solution (solvent) for other drugs, the probability of water effects is determined by the properties of these drugs. In this case, if adverse reactions occur, the administration of the solution should be suspended, the patient's condition should be assessed, adequate measures should be taken, and the remaining solution should be saved for analysis, if necessary.
If any of the side effects indicated in the instructions are aggravated, or you notice any other side effects not listed in the instructions, inform your doctor.
Contraindications
- hypernatremia, acidosis, hyperchloremia, hypokalemia, extracellular hyperhydration;
- circulatory disorders that threaten pulmonary edema;
- cerebral edema, pulmonary edema, acute left ventricular failure, concomitant administration of corticosteroids in large doses.
When adding other drugs to the solution, contraindications to these drugs must be considered.
Precautions: decompensated chronic heart failure, arterial hypertension, peripheral edema, preeclampsia, chronic renal failure (oligo- anuria), aldosteronism and other conditions associated with sodium retention in the body.
Pregnancy and lactation
Use for impaired renal function
With caution: chronic renal failure (oligo- anuria).
Use in children
special instructions
During any infusion, it is necessary to monitor the patient's condition, the clinical and biological indicators, it is especially important to evaluate plasma electrolytes. In the body of children, due to the immaturity of kidney function, sodium excretion may slow down. Therefore, in such patients, repeated infusions should be carried out only after determining the concentration of sodium in plasma.
Use only a clear solution, without visible inclusions, if the packaging is not damaged. Enter immediately after connecting to the infusion system. Do not Otrivin serial connection of plastic containers. This can lead to air embolism due to the suction of air remaining in the first container, which can occur before the solution arrives from the next container. The solution should be administered using sterile equipment in compliance with aseptic and antiseptic rules. In order to avoid air entering the infusion system, it should be filled with a solution, releasing the residual air from the container completely. You can add other drugs to the solution water or during infusion by injection into the container area specially designed for this purpose.
As with all parenteral solutions, the compatibility of the added substances with the solution should Sea determined before dissolution.
Do not use with a solution of sodium chloride 0.9% preparations known as incompatible with it. The doctor should determine the compatibility of added medicinal substances with a 0.9% sodium chloride solution, checking for a possible change in color and / or appearance of a precipitate, insoluble complexes or crystals.
Before adding, it is necessary to determine whether the added substance is soluble and stable in water at a pH level, as in a sodium chloride solution of 0.9%.
When adding the drug, it is necessary to determine the isotonicity of the resulting solution before infusion. Before adding drugs to the solution, they must be thoroughly mixed in compliance with aseptic rules. The prepared solution should be introduced immediately after preparation, do not store!
