What does it do?

Glucose hydrate is a form of glucose combined with water, which is quickly used as an energy source in the body. In pharmaceuticals, it is mainly used to maintain the balance of fluids and electrolytes and to provide nutrition. It plays a crucial role, especially in intravenous solutions such as peritoneal dialysis fluid.

Glucose hydrate is easily broken down in the body to provide energy to cells. It also contributes to maintaining fluid balance by regulating osmotic pressure within solutions. This supports the normal metabolism and function of the body.

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

Good to know
