What does it do?

Sodium lactate is a compound formed by the combination of lactate and sodium ions, used in peritoneal dialysis solutions to regulate the body's electrolyte balance and acid-base status. This ingredient contributes to maintaining physiological functions by regulating acidity in body fluids.

Inside the body, sodium lactate mitigates acidic environments as lactate is metabolized and converted into bicarbonate. This helps prevent acidosis that may occur during peritoneal dialysis and maintains electrolyte balance.

Approved uses differ by product. Check each product's information for its actual use.

Good to know

Unlike simple sodium sources, sodium lactate directly influences acid-base balance by the metabolism of lactate. In this respect, it is distinguished from simple electrolyte supplements and serves as an essential component in regulating acid-base balance in peritoneal dialysis solutions.
