Natrium Chloratum Teva (Sodium Chloride)

Sodium Chloride, the active ingredient in Natrium Chloratum Teva, is an electrolyte solution presented as a sterile solution for injection for intraarticular, intravenous and periarticular use. It provides sodium and chloride ions to restore extracellular fluid volume and electrolyte balance in patients who need fluid replacement or joint irrigation.

GNH USA supplies Natrium Chloratum Teva as a licensed, GDP‑compliant international pharmaceutical supplier serving hospitals worldwide.

Natrium Chloratum Teva is an electrolyte solution that addresses conditions requiring fluid and electrolyte management.

- Fluid replacement: restores intravascular volume and corrects sodium‑chloride deficits in dehydration or blood loss. - Electrolyte replenishment: supplies essential sodium and chloride ions to maintain plasma osmolarity and acid‑base balance. - Joint irrigation: used intra‑ or peri‑articularly to flush surgical sites and reduce debris during orthopedic procedures.

Adverse reactions may occur with any parenteral solution. Monitoring during and after administration is recommended.

Common Side Effects: - Local irritation at the injection site. - Mild transient hypernatremia. - Mild metabolic alkalosis. - Phlebitis or vein inflammation.

Serious or Rare Side Effects: - Severe hypernatremia leading to neurological symptoms. - Fluid overload causing pulmonary edema. - Electrolyte imbalance with severe hypochloremia. - Anaphylactoid reactions to preservatives (if present).

When using Natrium Chloratum Teva, clinicians should observe several safety measures.

- Assess baseline electrolyte status: obtain serum Na⁺ and Cl⁻ levels before infusion. - Monitor infusion rate: avoid rapid bolus administration that may cause cardiac stress. - Avoid excessive volume: watch for signs of fluid overload in patients with cardiac or renal impairment. - Use compatible IV solutions: do not mix with drugs that may precipitate. - Store at ambient temperature: keep in original container, protect from light and moisture.

Sodium chloride can interact with other agents that affect fluid balance or electrolyte concentrations.

Major Interactions (Avoid): - Hypertonic glucose solutions: concurrent use may exacerbate hypernatremia. - Loop diuretics: can intensify sodium loss, counteracting the intended effect.

Moderate Interactions (Monitor Closely): - ACE inhibitors or ARBs: may increase risk of hyperkalemia when combined with large sodium loads. - Corticosteroids: may alter fluid distribution, requiring closer monitoring. - Blood products: simultaneous infusion may affect electrolyte measurements.
