Basic Information

Mechanism Of Action

Dns Infusion is a combination of two medicines: Dextrose and Sodium Chloride. They work by restoring blood plasma lost due to severe bleeding. Plasma is required to circulate red blood cells that deliver oxygen throughout the body.

Pharmacokinets

Dextrose in intravenous fluids undergoes oxidation to carbon dioxide and water, and quickly provides fluid and calories. Oral glucose also works quickly (usually within 15 minutes) by raising blood glucose concentrations to alleviate symptoms of hypoglycemia.As the sodium chloride intravenous preparations are directly administered to the circulation, the bioavailability of the components is 100%. Excess sodium is predominantly excreted by the kidneys, with small amounts lost in faeces and sweat.

Side Effects

Most side effects do not require any medical attention and disappear as your body adjusts to the medicine. Consult your doctor if they persist or if you’re worried about them
