Dextrose 50% Sterile Solution is a terminally sterilized, single-dose liquid formulated with dextrose at 50% weight-per-volume in water for injection. It is intended for use in beef and dairy cattle as an aid in managing uncomplicated acetonemia, more commonly known as ketosis, by supplying a concentrated source of glucose. The solution contains no preservative, so any unused portion after opening should be discarded rather than stored for later use. Handling calls for strict aseptic technique, and the solution should appear clear before use and be warmed toward body temperature prior to administration. Dosing is based on body weight, with treatment sometimes repeated over successive hours or days depending on the animal's response. The product ships in individual bottles supplied together as a multi-bottle case for herd or clinic use.
