Mode of actions

Potassium chloride is mainly found inside cells. It helps send nerve signals in the heart, brain, and muscles, and is important for muscle contractions, normal kidney function, keeping the body’s acid-base balance, using carbohydrates, and making stomach acid.

Sodium chloride is mostly found outside cells. It helps control the balance of fluids and electrolytes, keeps normal water levels, and restores sodium levels. It is used to provide fluids and electrolytes for hydration, treat metabolic acidosis, prepare for kidney dialysis, and help manage high-blood-sugar diabetes. It’s also used as a liquid to mix other medicines for infusions.

Dextrose is a type of sugar that provides calories and helps with hydration. It prevents the loss of body protein and nitrogen, and helps store energy in the liver. When given with insulin, dextrose helps move potassium into cells, especially muscle cells, lowering potassium in the blood.

Sodium bicarbonate increases the pH of blood and urine by adding bicarbonate ions, which reduces acidity. It can also neutralize stomach acid by producing carbon dioxide.
