class=\"wp-block-heading\">What Sodium Chloride Fresenius Kabi is and what it is used for<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Sodium chloride Fresenius Kabi solution for\u00a0infusion\u00a0is a clear solution of salt for\u00a0intravenous\u00a0infusion\u00a0(slow\u00a0injection\u00a0), also called drip into a vein.\u00a0It is used when the body has lost a lot of water (\u00a0dehydration\u00a0) or in sodium deficiency.\u00a0It can also be used to dissolve or dilute drugs before the drugs are given as an\u00a0intravenous\u00a0infusion.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What you need to know before using Sodium Chloride Fresenius Kabi<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Do not use Sodium Chloride Fresenius Kabi<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>if you are allergic to sodium chloride or any of the other ingredients of this medicine (listed in section 6).<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Or if you have one or more of the following:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>High levels of&nbsp;sodium&nbsp;in the blood (&nbsp;hypernatremia&nbsp;).<\/li><li>High levels of chloride in the blood (&nbsp;hyperchloraemia&nbsp;).<\/li><li>Too much water in the body (hyperhydration).<\/li><li>Severe impaired cardiac function.<\/li><li>Severe renal impairment.<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Your doctor will check this.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Warnings and cautions<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Talk to your doctor or nurse before using Sodium Chloride Fresenius Kabi.&nbsp;Nursing staff will monitor you at the beginning of&nbsp;administration&nbsp;one.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Sodium chloride should be given with special caution if you have:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>Decreased heart function (&nbsp;heart failure&nbsp;).<\/li><li>High&nbsp;blood pressure&nbsp;(&nbsp;hypertension&nbsp;).<\/li><li>Fluid retention (&nbsp;edema&nbsp;) in the body or lungs.<\/li><li>Renal impairment (your doctor will monitor the levels of various&nbsp;electrolytes&nbsp;in your blood during and after the&nbsp;infusion&nbsp;).<\/li><li>Low levels of&nbsp;potassium&nbsp;in the blood (&nbsp;hypokalaemia&nbsp;).<\/li><li>Too much acid in the body (metabolic&nbsp;acidosis&nbsp;).<\/li><li>High&nbsp;blood pressure&nbsp;and&nbsp;protein&nbsp;in the urine if you are pregnant (pregnancy

treatments in connection with sodium retention.<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>If you are dehydrated (&nbsp;hypertonic&nbsp;dehydration&nbsp;), healthcare professionals will check that the&nbsp;infusion&nbsp;is not given too quickly.&nbsp;Rapid&nbsp;infusion&nbsp;of large amounts can also lead to too much acid in the body with high levels of chloride (hyperchloremic&nbsp;acidosis&nbsp;).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Children<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Newborn babies may have immature kidneys and may therefore have too high sodium levels in their blood.\u00a0Therefore, healthcare professionals will check the sodium levels in the blood before starting\u00a0administration.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Other drugs and Sodium Chloride Fresenius Kabi<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Tell your doctor or pharmacist if you are taking, have recently taken, or might take any other medicines.\u00a0Increased levels of\u00a0sodium\u00a0or chloride may occur during concomitant treatment with\u00a0corticosteroids.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Pregnancy, breastfeeding and fertility<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>If you are pregnant or breastfeeding, think you may be pregnant, or are planning to have a baby, ask your doctor or nurse for advice before taking this medicine.\u00a0Sodium chloride can be used by pregnant and lactating women, provided the advice in this information is followed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Healthcare professionals will use Sodium Chloride Fresenius Kabi with caution if you have high&nbsp;blood pressure&nbsp;and&nbsp;protein&nbsp;in your urine during pregnancy (pregnancy poisoning).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Driving and using machines<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Sodium chloride

chloride Fresenius Kabi will be given to you by a doctor or nurse.\u00a0It will be given to you as a drip into a vein (\u00a0intravenous\u00a0infusion\u00a0).\u00a0Your doctor will decide the right\u00a0dose\u00a0for you and when and how it should be given.\u00a0Your doctor will take into account your age, weight, physical condition, and what other treatments you are receiving.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">If you use more sodium chloride Fresenius Kabi than you should &nbsp;<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Sodium chloride Fresenius Kabi is given by healthcare professionals, so it is unlikely that you will receive a larger&nbsp;dose&nbsp;than you should.&nbsp;If you accidentally overdose, your&nbsp;administration&nbsp;will be stopped and you will receive

myelinolysis).<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Has been reported (occurs in an unknown number of users)<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>Excess fluid in the body (&nbsp;hypervolemia&nbsp;), high levels of&nbsp;sodium&nbsp;in the blood (&nbsp;hypernatremia&nbsp;) in heart and&nbsp;kidney failure&nbsp;, rapid&nbsp;infusion&nbsp;of large amounts can lead to too much acid in the body with high levels of chloride (hyperchloraemic&nbsp;acidosis&nbsp;).<\/li><li>Fever, injection site&nbsp;infection&nbsp;, local pain or reaction, venous irritation,&nbsp;inflammation&nbsp;of the vein where the solution is given (&nbsp;venous thrombosis&nbsp;or&nbsp;phlebitis&nbsp;), accidental&nbsp;administration&nbsp;of the solution outside the vein (extravasation).<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>When Sodium Chloride Fresenius Kabi solution for&nbsp;infusion&nbsp;is used for&nbsp;the preparation&nbsp;of other medicines, the frequency of&nbsp;side effects&nbsp;depends on the product being added.&nbsp;Your doctor will be able to advise you on this.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You can be monitored by healthcare professionals during treatment.&nbsp;If any side effects get worse, your doctor or nurse will help you.&nbsp;If&nbsp;side effects&nbsp;are of concern to you, talk to a doctor or nurse.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">How to store Sodium
