hospira, inc. - sodium bicarbonate (unii: 8mdf5v39qo) (bicarbonate ion - unii:hn1zra3q20, sodium cation - unii:lyr4m0nh37) - sodium bicarbonate 42 mg in 1 ml - sodium bicarbonate injection, usp is indicated in the treatment of metabolic acidosis which may occur in severe renal disease, uncontrolled diabetes, circulatory insufficiency due to shock or severe dehydration, extracorporeal circulation of blood, cardiac arrest and severe primary lactic acidosis. sodium bicarbonate is further indicated in the treatment of certain drug intoxications, including barbiturates (where dissociation of the barbiturate-protein complex is desired), in poisoning by salicylates or methyl alcohol and in hemolytic reactions requiring alkalinization of the urine to diminish nephrotoxicity of hemoglobin and its breakdown products. sodium bicarbonate also is indicated in severe diarrhea which is often accompanied by a significant loss of bicarbonate. treatment of metabolic acidosis should, if possible, be superimposed on measures designed to control the basic cause of the acidosis – e.g., insulin in uncomplicated diabetes, blood volume restoration in shock. but since an appreciable time interval may elapse before all of the ancillary effects are brought about, bicarbonate therapy is indicated to minimize risks inherent to the acidosis itself. vigorous bicarbonate therapy is required in any form of metabolic acidosis where a rapid increase in plasma total co2 content is crucial – e.g., cardiac arrest, circulatory insufficiency due to shock or severe dehydration, and in severe primary lactic acidosis or severe diabetic acidosis. sodium bicarbonate injection, usp is contraindicated in patients who are losing chloride by vomiting or from continuous gastrointestinal suction, and in patients receiving diuretics known to produce a hypochloremic alkalosis.
