Solution for infusion - 5% (50 g/1000 ml)

Glucose is a monosaccharide, which by mouth, but mainly parenterally, is used as a source of energy; it takes part in the metabolism of lipids and prevents acidosis by increasing the hepatic nitrogen content. The latter function has been used to prevent and to treat intoxications from medicines which are hepatotoxic. In absence of a sufficient quantity of glucose, lipids are highly oxidized and the intermediate products, such as: hydroxybutyric acid and acetoacetic acid are accumulated in blood becoming a potential cause for ketoacidosis.

It is indicated for fluid replacement and to provide the necessary energy, as a parenteral nutrition of severely-ill patients, in hypoglycemia; in intoxications with different substances (barbiturates, morphine, salicylates, mercuric compounds).
