Dosage

The volume required will depend on the extent and dura- tion of the intervention and on the postoperative course.

Overdosage

During long-lasting interventions particularly when a large venous sinus is opened, an inflow of irrigation fluid can lead to fluid overload with dilution hyponatraemia (hypotonic hyperhydration, corresponding to a water in- toxication).

Headache, nausea, bradycardia, elevated blood pressure, restlessness and disorientation are symptoms of hyperhy- dration. In severe cases coma-like states can occur.

Treatment in cases of overdosage

Discontinuation of irrigation, correction of the water and electrolyte balance depending on the particular clinical situation.

• Sorbitol/Mannitol 3 B. Braun should be applied with care in:

• Contraindications

  Sorbitol/Mannitol 3 B. Braun may not be applied with:

• oligo-anuria
• fructose-sorbitol intolerance
• methyl alcohol intoxication
• hypersensitivity to
•  Adverse side effects

  Sorbitol/Mannitol 3% B. Braun contains sorbitol. If there is undiagnosed hereditary fructose-sorbitol intolerance the administration of solutions containing sorbitol can lead to nausea, hypoglycaemia, elevation of lactate lev- els, acidosis and acute liver damage, with possible lethal consequences.

  For this reason it is necessary to exclude the possibility of an hereditary fructose intolerance or a fructose-1,6- diphosphatase deficiency before commencement of irri- gation. If details of the case history are not available or are not unequivocal a fructose intolerance test must be carried out first. If this is not done there is the possibil- ity of severe complications (including a lethal outcome under certain circumstances).

  Expiry date

  The solution must not be used after the expiry date given on the label.
