What does it do?

Sodium Lactate solution is an electrolyte solution formed by the combination of lactate and sodium ions. It is primarily used in medical products to maintain hydration and electrolyte balance in the body. It is especially used as an intravenous fluid for the treatment of dehydration or electrolyte imbalance.

In the body, sodium ions serve as the main electrolyte in extracellular fluid and help regulate fluid balance. Lactate is metabolized in the body and converted to bicarbonate, assisting in the maintenance of acid-base balance. This helps restore the normal state of body fluids.

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

Good to know

Unlike simple sodium solutions, Sodium Lactate solution contains lactate, which serves an additional role in regulating acid-base balance. As a result, it may be more effective than simple saline in fluid regulation.
