SODIUM PHOSPHATES INJECTION

Approved Use

Sodium Phosphates Injection, USP, 3mM P/mL, is indicated as a source of phosphorus, for addition to large volume intravenous fluids, to prevent or correct hypophosphatemia in patients with restricted or no oral intake. It is also useful as an additive for preparing specific intravenous fluid formulas when the needs of the patient cannot be met by standard electrolyte or nutrient solutions. The concomitant amount of sodium (4 mEq/mL) must be calculated into total electrolyte content of such prepared solutions.
