Sodium Bi Carbonate Injection 10Ml

Sodium Bi Carbonate Injection 10Ml is indicated in the treatment of metabolic acidosis and other conditions requiring systemic alkalinisation. It is also used to increase urinary pH to increase the solubility of certain weak acids, in treatment of certain intoxications to decrease renal absorption of the drug, severe diarrhoea accompanied by loss of bicarbonate, and poisoning by salicylates or methyl alcohol. Sodium Bi Carbonate Injection 10Ml may also be used to treat patients who have taken too many tricyclic antidepressants only after other resuscitation methods have been attempted.
 
Sodium Bi Carbonate Injection 10Ml contains ‘Sodium bicarbonate’, which acts as an electrolyte replenisher and systemic alkaliser. Thereby reducing the acid in the blood. Sodium Bi Carbonate Injection 10Ml helps reduce the amount of acid in the body after a heart attack in patients who have too much potassium in their blood or too much acid. 
 
Sodium Bi Carbonate Injection 10Ml will be administered by a healthcare professional; do not self-administer.
