4. Clinical particulars
4.1 Therapeutic indications
Glucose 50% is hypertonic and provides a source of calories in a
minimal volume of water. Glucose 50%
is frequently used in both adults and children to restore blood
glucose concentrations in the treatment of
hypoglycaemia resulting from insulin excess or from other causes.
Glucose 50% may be used to provide temporary relief from the symptoms
of cerebral oedema and from
hypoglycaemic coma. Hyperosmotic Glucose with or without insulin may
correct hyperkalaemia in renal
failure and also some forms of hyponatraemia.
4.2 Posology and method of administration
Glucose 50% must be administered by the intravenous route; it must not
be administered by subcutaneous
or intramuscular route. Except in the emergency treatment of severe
hypoglycaemia, Glucose 50% should
be administered via a central vein after appropriate dilution. When
used for the emergency treatment of
hypoglycaemia, Glucose 50% may be administered slowly into a
peripheral vein at a rate not greater than
3mls per minute.
Dosage of Glucose depends on the age, weight, clinical condition, the
fluid, electrolyte and acid base
balance of the patient. For the treatment of hypoglycaemia resulting
from insulin excess or other causes in
adults (including the elderly) and children, the usual dose is as
follows:
20-50ml of Glucose 50% administered slowly intravenously. This
represents 3mls per minute.
Repeated doses and supportive therapy may be required in some cases.
4.3 Contraindications
Glucose 50% is contraindicated in patients with the glucose -
galactose malabsorption syndrome.
Hypertonic Glucose solutions are contraindicated in patients with
