Active Ingredient Description
Magnesium chloride
Potassium chloride

Potassium plays a vital physiological role in maintenance of normal electrical excitability of nerve and muscle. It is also important in the genesis and correction of imbalances of acid-base metabolism.

Sodium bicarbonate

Sodium bicarbonate has antacid properties. Sodium bicarbonate causes neutralisation of gastric acid with the production of carbon dioxide.

Sodium chloride

Sodium chloride is the principle salt involved in maintaining the osmotic tension of blood and tissues. Changes in osmotic tension influence the movement of fluids and diffusion of salts in cellular tissue.

Sodium phosphate
List of Excipients

Small compartment: Water for injections, Dilute hydrochloric acid (for pH adjustment) E507

Large compartment: Water for injections, Carbon dioxide (for pH adjustment) E290

Pack sizes and marketing

The container is a two-compartment bag made of a multilayer film containing polyolefins and elastomers. The 5000 ml bag is comprised of a small compartment (250 ml) and a large compartment (4750 ml).
