Benefits of DNS Infusion

In Protein supplementation
DNS Infusion adds easily digested protein to the diet, helping to maintain and rebuild muscle when food alone does not provide enough.
In Nutritional support
DNS Infusion provides balanced nutrition when eating is difficult or the body's needs are raised, helping to prevent weight loss and weakness.
In Recovery and convalescence
DNS Infusion supplies the extra protein and energy the body needs to heal after surgery, injury or a long illness, so strength returns sooner.
In Nutritional deficiency
DNS Infusion replaces the vitamins or minerals your body is short of, correcting the deficiency and the symptoms it was causing.
In Dietary supplementation
DNS Infusion fills the gap between what your diet provides and what your body needs, which matters most when appetite is poor, needs are raised, or a medical condition limits absorption.

How DNS Infusion works

Dextrose provides a source of energy and helps prevent ketosis, while sodium chloride replenishes extracellular fluid and electrolytes. Together they restore fluid balance and help maintain blood volume and osmolarity.

How to take DNS Infusion

For intravenous infusion only under medical supervision. Dose and rate depend on age, clinical condition, and electrolyte/glucose status; monitor blood glucose and electrolytes during therapy.

Take it exactly as your doctor prescribed. Do not change the dose or stop early on your own.

Missed dose and overdose

If you miss a dose

Take it as soon as you remember. If your next dose is almost due, skip the one you missed — never take two doses together to catch up.

If you take too much

An overdose of this medicine may cause stomach upset and, with prolonged excess, puts avoidable load on the kidneys. It can cause vomiting and stomach pain, and with iron can be dangerous, especially in children. Do not wait for symptoms to appear — go to the nearest emergency department and take the pack or strip with you.

Side effects of DNS Infusion

Most side effects of DNS Infusion are mild and settle as the body gets used to the medicine. The ones reported most often are:

  • Fluid overload
  • edema
  • injection site phlebitis
  • electrolyte imbalance (hypernatremia)
  • hyperglycemia
  • hyponatremia (if inappropriate use)
  • fever (rare)

Stop the medicine and get help at once for a rash, swelling of the face or lips, wheezing or difficulty breathing. Tell your doctor about any side effect that persists or worries you.
