Intravenously - 10-50 ml of 5% and 10% solutions for administration.
In adults with a normal metabolism, the daily dose of glucose administered should not exceed 4-6 g / kg, i.e. about 250-450 g (with a decrease in the metabolic rate, the daily dose is reduced to 200-300 g), while the daily volume of the injected liquid is 30-40 ml / kg.
Children for parenteral nutrition, along with fats and amino acids, on the first day, 6 g glucose / kg / day, followed by up to 15 g / kg / day. When calculating the dose of glucose with the introduction of 5% and 10% glucose solutions, one should take into account the permissible volume of the injected liquid: for children with a body weight of 2-10 kg - 100-165 ml / kg / day, children with a body weight of 10-40 kg - 45-100 ml / kg / day.
For more complete assimilation of glucose, administered in large doses, simultaneously with her, insulin is prescribed at the rate of 1 unit of insulin per 4-5 g of glucose.
Diabetes patients with glucose are administered under the control of its content in the blood and urine.
