Sodium Chloride (NA)

Overview Normal Saline Infusion

Purified salt solution forms the basis of Normal Saline intravenous therapy, a short-term fluid replenisher. It addresses hypovolemia stemming from dehydration or trauma by restoring crucial electrolyte and sodium balances. This replenishment is achieved through intravenous administration, strictly under medical supervision. Prior to treatment, any allergies to the solution must be disclosed. Regular blood pressure monitoring and blood tests may be recommended during therapy. Common, albeit typically mild, adverse effects include injection site irritation, low blood pressure, fever, trembling, and shivering. Report any persistent or concerning side effects immediately. Pregnant or breastfeeding individuals, and those with kidney impairment, should consult their physician before treatment, as dosage modifications may be necessary. Normal Saline infusion is generally considered safe for patients with liver conditions.
