DESCRIPTION  
Sterile isotonic preservative-free solutions containing anhydrous glucose 5% in
Water for 
Injections.  
Each mL of solution contains 50 mg glucose (anhydrous). 
PHARMACOLOGY 
PHARMACODYNAMICS 
Glucose is a naturally occurring monosaccharide found in
the blood and is the principle 
source of energy for the body.  
Glucose is metabolised in the body to carbon dioxide and
water with the release of energy 
and calories.  
It is stored in the body as fat and in
the liver and muscles as glycogen.  Glycogen is broken 
down and converted
to glucose when body glucose level is depleted. 
As well as providing a 
source of energy,
glucose infusions may reduce catabolic loss of nitrogen
from the body and 
help prevent depletion of liver glycogen.  It is also
a source to be converted for nucleic acid 
formation. 
INDICATIONS 
•  for fluid and carbohydrate depletion
wherever a non-electrolyte fluid is required  
•  in the treatment of hypoglycaemia 
•  in the treatment of acute diarrhoeal disease
