OSE AND METHOD OF ADMINISTRATION
Glucose 50% intravenous infusion is strongly hypertonic and must be
administered via the intravenous (IV) route
only. Except in the emergency treatment of severe hypoglycaemia,
Glucose 50% intravenous infusion should be
appropriately diluted and administered via an IV catheter carefully
placed in a large central vein.
For emergency treatment of hypoglycaemia, Glucose 50% intravenous
infusion may be administered slowly (e.g.
3 mL/minute) via a small bore needle carefully placed in a large
peripheral vein.
The dose of glucose is dependent on the age, weight and fluid,
electrolyte, glucose and acid-base balance of the
patient. The rate of infusion should not exceed 0.5 g/kg/hr to avoid
glycosuria.
ACUTE HYPOGLYCAEMIA
ADULTS AND CHILDREN: 20-50 mL of Glucose 50% intravenous infusion
administered by slow IV injection as an initial
dose. The total dose will vary depending on the patient's response and
blood glucose levels. Pro
