Just got an IV flush with Normal Saline 3ml; anyone know the side effects?
I recently had an IV flush with Normal Saline 3ml and was wondering if anyone has experienced notable side effects. It's a sterile saltwater solution used to keep IV lines clear, but I've heard it can cause allergic reactions in some people. I'm curious to know if anyone here has had any weird reactions or if it's usually smooth sailing. Let me know your experiences!

I think the worst part is the initial pinch when they insert the IV. The flush itself is usually a breeze, though.
Side effects are rare, but when they happen, they can be severe. I remember reading that if you experience rash, hives, or trouble breathing, you need to seek medical attention right away.
I got a flush once and felt a bit dizzy afterwards. Turns out it was just dehydration from the procedure itself, not the flush. But I was freaking out for a second.
Yeah, I had my first flush a few weeks back. No issues, but my nurse gave me a list of potential reactions to look out for. I'm glad I had it, just in case.
