Dosage Amounts to be administered and administration route Administer by intravenous infusion. Management of dehydration including patients with mild metabolic acidosis The amount of fluid and electrolytes to be administered should be calculated by adding the existing deficits to the ongoing maintenance requirements and any ongoing fluid losses (e.g. from ongoing vomiting, diarrhoea etc) estimated from the history of the animal, clinical examination and laboratory findings. To calculate the existing fluid deficit, the following equation should be used; Fluid deficit (mls) = Percentage dehydration x Bodyweight (kg) x 10 (e.g. for a 10 kg dog with 5% dehydration the fluid deficit would be 5 x 10 x 10 = 500ml) To calculate the ongoing maintenance requirement, the following equation should be used; Maintenance for Cattle, Horses, Sheep, Goats, Pigs, Dogs and Cats (mls) = 50ml x Bodyweight (kg) per day Maintenance of Rabbits (mls) = 75-100ml x Bodyweight (kg) per day (e.g. for a 10 kg dog, the daily maintenance fluid requirement is 10 x 50 = 500ml) The administration rate should be adjusted to each animal. The objective is to correct the deficit over 12 – 24 hours. Prevention of peri-operative hypovolaemia Administer at a rate of 5 – 10ml/kg/hr during anaesthesia Treatment of hypovolaemic and haemorrhagic shock Cattle, Horses, Sheep, Goats, Pigs, Dogs Rabbits; up to 90ml/kg/hr Cats; up to 60ml/kg/hr High infusion rates should not be continued for longer than 1 hour. Overdose (symptoms, emergency procedures, antidotes), if necessary In the presence of volume overload signs (e.g. restlessness, moist lung sounds, tachycardia, tachypnoea or coughing), treatment should involve administering diuretics and stopping the infusion. An excessive infusion of product may cause metabolic alkalosis due to the presence of lactate ions.
