Mode of Action

Dextrose and sodium chloride solutions are used as sources of electrolytes, calories and water for hydration. Sodium and chloride ions are responsible for regulating the acid-base balance of the body. Dextrose is a source of calories. It is readily metabolised and helps to decrease losses of body protein and nitrogen. It also promotes glycogen deposition and decreases or prevents ketosis.
