Sodac Injection

Sodac injection contains the active ingredient Sodium Bicarbonate. It is an alkalinising agent used to treat metabolic acidosis associated with severe renal disease, uncontrolled diabetes, circulatory insufficiency caused by shock or severe dehydration, extracorporeal blood circulation, cardiac arrest, and severe primary lactic acidosis. It is also used in the treatment of certain drug intoxications and severe diarrhoea.

Do not use Sodac injection if you are allergic to Sodium Bicarbonate or any other ingredients in the medication. Avoid this injection if you have hypoventilation (slow or shallow breathing), certain blood abnormalities, kidney stones, high blood pressure, kidney or heart failure, or fluid retention. Inform your doctor about these conditions before starting treatment.

During treatment with this medicine, your healthcare provider may regularly monitor your blood acid levels. Notify your doctor if you are on a low-salt or salt-free diet or intolerant to sucrose, as the medication contains a small amount of sucrose. Before starting treatment, inform your doctor if you are pregnant, think you may be pregnant, are planning to become pregnant, or are breastfeeding.

Metabolic acidosis Drug intoxication Severe Diarrhea

Sodac injection involves its ability to act as a buffer and raise the pH of the blood. It works by increasing the concentration of bicarbonate ions in the bloodstream, which helps to neutralize the excess acid and restore the acid-base balance in the body.

Sodac injection will be administered to you by a healthcare professional in a hospital setting. It is usually administered in a vein (intravenous). Your doctor will decide the dose, route of administration, and frequency based on your disease condition and other factors.

Side effects are unwanted symptoms caused by medicines. Even though all medicines cause side effects, not everyone gets them. Common Low potassium levels (resulting in muscle twitching and weakness) Low blood sugar High sodium levels Acidosis (increased breathing rate) Increased blood volume Low calcium levels (muscle contractions) Swelling and bleeding Skin irritation

Liver, heart, and kidney patients should take Sodac injection cautiously and inform their doctor about all the underlying medical conditions. Intravenous administration of these solutions can lead to excessive fluid and electrolyte levels, resulting in fluid overload, congestion, or swelling in the lungs. Do not stop the medicine until your doctor advises. Do not double-dose the medicine to make up for a forgotten dose. Notify your doctor if you experience any serious side effects. Your medical professional will inform you if you need any dose adjustments. Contact your doctor for more information.
