________________________________________________________________________________ 1 NAME OF THE MEDICINE Baxter Potassium Chloride and Sodium Chloride Intravenous Infusion 10mmol/100mL, 20mmol/1000mL, 30mmol/1000mL, 40mmol/1000mL _Composition: _the active ingredients are: potassium chloride and sodium chloride. The chemical names are potassium chloride and sodium chloride, with chemical formulae as KCI and NaCI, respectively. The CAS numbers are Potassium Chloride 7447-40-7 and Sodium Chloride 7647-14-5. _Chemical structure: _KCI and NaCI DESCRIPTION Potassium chloride and sodium chloride occur as colourless or white crystals and are freely soluble in water. THE BAXTER POTASSIUM CHLORIDE AND SODIUM CHLORIDE INTRAVENOUS INFUSION is a sterile, non-pyrogenic solution. The amounts of potassium chloride and sodium chloride dissolved in Water for Injections are shown in Table 1 (see _Presentation_). Hydrochloric acid may be added for pH adjustment. They do not contain an antimicrobial agent or added buffer and have a pH of 4.0 - 7.0. The products are isotonic solutions (see Table 1 and _Precautions_). PHARMACOLOGY _Mechanism of Action:_ The Baxter Potassium Chloride and Sodium Chloride Intravenous Infusion is mainly intended for the treatment of potassium depletion. Thus, the mode of action of these formulations should be looked at from that viewpoint. Potassium is a major cation of the intracellular fluid (160mmol/litre of intracellular water) found primarily in muscle cells. It functions principally in the maintenance of acid-base balance; isotonicity and electrodynamic characteristics of the cells. In contrast, sodium is the major cation of the extracellular fluid (135 to 145mmol/litre) and functions principally in the control of water distribution, fluid and electrolyte সম্পূর্ণ নথি পড়ুন
