By slow intravenous injection or infusion.
An amount appropriate to the body - base deficiency up to 300 mmol.
Plasma pH should be measured at
regular intervals.
4.3 Contraindications
Not to be administered to patients with metabolic or respiratory
alkalosis, hypocalcaemia,
hypochlorhydria, hypertension, hypoventilation, chloride depletion or
hyperosmolar states such as anuria
or oliguria, edematous sodium retaining conditions such as hepatic
cirrhosis, congestive heart failure and
toxemia of pregnancy.
Administration of sodium bicarbonate is contraindicated in patients
taking diuretics known to produce
hypochloremic alkalosis.
4.4 Special warnings and precautions for use
Overtreatment with bicarbonate must be avoided. Frequent monitoring of
serum electrolytes and acid-
base status is essential.
Sodium bicarbonate should be administered with extreme caution to
patients with oedema, aldosteronism,
potassium depletion or respiratory acidosis.
4.5 Interaction with other medicinal products and other forms of
interaction
Caution should be used when administering sodium ions to patients
receiving corticosteroids or
corticotropin.
Urinary alkalisation will increase renal clearance of tetracyclines,
especially doxycycline. It will increase
the half-lives and duration of action of basic drugs such as
quinidine, amphetamines, ephedrine and
pseudoephedrine.
Concurrent use in patients taking potassium supplements decreases
serum potassium concentrations by
