calcium chloride + potassium chloride + sodium lactate + sodium chloride + dextrose monohydrate

Calcium chloride + potassium chloride + sodium lactate + sodium chloride + dextrose monohydrate is an intravenous crystalloid electrolyte-and-carbohydrate solution generally marketed as **Lactated Ringer's and Dextrose 5% Injection**. It supplies water, sodium, potassium, calcium, chloride, lactate, and dextrose; the electrolytes expand and replenish extracellular fluid, dextrose provides carbohydrate calories, and lactate is metabolized to bicarbonate equivalents that can provide an alkalinizing effect. It is indicated as a source of water, electrolytes, and calories and as an alkalinizing agent in adults and pediatric patients. The specified ingredient list can encompass products with different potassium chloride concentrations, including standard Lactated Ringer's and Dextrose formulations and potassium-supplemented formulations.
