Product Description
Ringer Lactate Solution is a balanced, multiple-electrolyte intravenous fluid used for restoration of extracellular fluid and electrolyte balance. Upon infusion, sodium lactate is metabolized to bicarbonate, providing an alkalizing effect to correct metabolic acidosis. It is indicated for: Treatment of hypovolemia (dehydration, blood loss, burns, surgery) Short-term intravascular volume replacement Mild to moderate metabolic acidosis (except lactic acidosis) Composition per 1000 mL (approximate): Sodium 131 mmol/L Potassium 5 mmol/L Calcium 2 mmol/L Chloride 111 mmol/L Lactate 29 mmol/L Theoretical osmolarity: 278 mOsm/L Benefits • Rapidly restores circulating volume and electrolytes • Corrects metabolic acidosis without causing alkalosis • Closely mimics plasma electrolyte profile • Preferred over normal saline in surgery, trauma, and burns • Reduces risk of hyperchloremic acidosis • Compatible with most IV medications (check compatibility) How to Use • For intravenous infusion only – administer via aseptic technique • Rate and volume depend on patient age, weight, clinical condition, and laboratory results • Typical adult rate: 250–500 mL/hour (adjusted by physician) • Inspect bag for leaks/particulates before use; do not use if seal broken or solution cloudy • Use within 24 hours once spike inserted; discard unused portion • Store at room temperature (15-30°C); do not freeze
