Sodium chloride
別名: Aqupharm, Vetivex, Normal Saline
Sodium chloride (saline) is commonly used to rehydrate pets, treat shock, or manage specific eye conditions. If your pet is prescribed oral salt tablets or eye ointment, follow your veterinarian's instructions carefully. The eye ointment may cause a mild, temporary stinging sensation. Ensure your pet always has access to fresh drinking water.
劑量必須由獸醫按你寵物的個別情況決定。切勿在沒有獸醫指導下給予人類藥物或其他寵物的處方藥。

- > **Warning:** Hypertonic saline solutions have very high sodium concentrations. Monitor serum sodium concentrations before and after administration. Maintenance with an isotonic crystalloid is usually required after administration to correct electrolyte and fluid disturbances. > **Safety and handling:** Hypertonic saline solutions should be regarded as drugs, not standard IV fluids, and stored separately to prevent confusion. **Clinical Pearl:** Enteric-coated products for oral use may not be adequately absorbed by dogs, leading to unpredictable efficacy. Normal saline contains higher amounts of chloride than plasma, increasing the risk of acidosis.
