What is Mannitol?
Active Ingredients: Mannitol
Mannitol is used to promote diuresis and reduce intracranial and intraocular pressure. This drug is indicated for the treatment of cerebral edema caused by neoplasms or trauma, dialysis disequilibrium syndrome, and the oliguric phase of acute renal failure. It also promotes the urinary excretion of toxic materials.
Mannitol is classified as an osmotic diuretic. It works by drawing water out of tissues, which decreases swelling.
This injection has been manufactured as a sterile, single-dose container for intravenous administration.
