Glucose (ATC V04CA02) is a simple monosaccharide sugar used as a primary source of energy by the body. Glucose solutions are used medically to treat hypoglycemia, dehydration, and as a component in parenteral nutrition. It is also utilized in diagnostic testing of glucose tolerance. Glucose is an essential nutrient and approved for use worldwide.
Pharmacokinetic parameters represent adult healthy individuals following intravenous administration of glucose. Values are estimated based on published pharmacokinetic models in the literature, as primary sources do not report all requested parameters explicitly for glucose infusion used as a drug.
