Description

Magnesium Sulfate 50% 2 mL NVP SDV 25Bx is a concentrated injectable form of magnesium sulfate, commonly used in clinical settings for various medical conditions. It is typically administered after dilution, as the concentration of 50% is too high for direct administration. Once diluted, it can be used for treating conditions such as hypomagnesemia, eclampsia, and seizures, or as part of the management of pre-eclampsia and arrhythmias.

This medication is typically provided in single-dose vials (SDVs), ensuring sterility and precise dosage for each administration. The 2 mL vial contains 1 gram of magnesium sulfate and is used under careful medical supervision. The concentration and the potential risks associated with high doses necessitate proper dilution before use.

Magnesium sulfate administration requires monitoring, especially in patients with renal insufficiency, as the kidneys play a key role in clearing the drug from the system. Potential side effects include respiratory depression, hypotension, and hypermagnesemia. Close observation of vital signs is essential during its use.
