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

**Sodium lactate + dextrose monohydrate + calcium chloride + sodium chloride + potassium chloride** is a sterile intravenous crystalloid combination solution corresponding to **Lactated Ringer's and 5% Dextrose Injection**. It provides water, electrolytes, lactate as a bicarbonate precursor, and dextrose as a carbohydrate calorie source. Clinically, it is used as a parenteral fluid, nutrient, and electrolyte replenisher for hydration and replacement of extracellular fluid losses in adults and pediatric patients, and can also function as an alkalinizing agent through metabolism of lactate to bicarbonate. This is an established hospital infusion product rather than a novel pipeline asset, with manufacturing and distribution reported for Fresenius Kabi and HP Halden Pharma.
