Sodium chloride is an essential electrolyte that is widely used in medicine as an isotonic solution for fluid and electrolyte replenishment, intravenous hydration, and as a vehicle for the administration of parenteral drugs. It is approved and routinely used in clinical practice.
Pharmacokinetic parameters are not routinely measured for sodium chloride as a therapeutic agent, because it is an endogenous substance with rapid distribution and elimination dependent on homeostatic renal mechanisms. The following estimates are provided for a typical healthy adult after intravenous administration.
