FAQs

Sodium Bi Carbonate Injection acts as an electrolyte replenisher and systemic alkaliser. It reduces the acid in the blood.

Sodium Bi Carbonate Injection is used to treat metabolic acidosis caused due to diabetes, hepatitis, starvation, shock, cardiac arrest, renal insufficiency, severe dehydration, severe primary lactic acidosis, Addison’s disease or administration of acidic drugs. Metabolic acidosis is an electrolyte disorder characterised by an acid-base imbalance in the body.

Sodium Bi Carbonate Injection is indicated in severe diarrhoea, which is often accompanied by a significant loss of bicarbonate. Sodium Bi Carbonate Injection helps by compensating for the lost bicarbonate ions.

Sodium Bi Carbonate Injection is indicated for treating certain drug intoxication, such as barbiturates (in cases where barbiturate-protein complex dissociation is desired). Sodium Bi Carbonate Injection may also be used to treat patients who have taken too many tricyclic antidepressants only after other resuscitation methods have been attempted.

Sodium Bi Carbonate Injection is used in poisoning by methyl alcohol or salicylates and in haemolytic reactions that require the alkalinisation of urine to lower the nephrotoxicity of haemoglobin and its by-products.
