I've been prescribed Sodium Chloride 2.5meq/ml Inj, 40ml for some severe dehydration. From what I understand, it's much stronger than regular IV fluids. Has anyone had any experience with this specific concentration? How does it compare to other saline solutions, and what should I watch out for, besides the obvious side effects? I tried reading all the medical jargon but it's still a bit overwhelming.
