Indications:
This product is administered by intravenous infusion for the treatment of dehydration, (in the absence of shock), in cattle, sheep, goats, pigs, horses, dogs and cats.  It is used to replace water when it cannot be taken or retained orally. It can also be used to correct hypernatraemia (by replacing lost water) and to aid the correction of hyperkalaemia (through the promotion of insulin production which in turn causes potassium to move from plasma into cells).
A glucose 5 g/100 ml infusion is not a significant calorie source but can provide transient improvement of hypoglycaemia.

Side-effects:
Administration of products by intravenous infusion may increase the risk of thrombosis.
