Sodium Bicarbonate

Overview

Basic Info

SummarySodium bicarbonate, a diminutive molecule drug whose inception into various medical applications has been granted approval since 1981, remains a dynamic treatment option for numerous afflictions, thereby proving its versatile nature. Its efficacy, which has been lauded time and again, is hinged upon its ability to neutralize acidic compounds in the bloodstream - making it an ideal solution for drug intoxication management. That's not all. Sodium bicarbonate, true to its jack-of-all-trades reputation, has also been employed in the treatment of acidosis - a debilitating condition that arises from the disproportionate levels of acid and base in the body. Hyperchlorhydria, an equally pesky condition, has also been brought to heel through the administration of sodium bicarbonate - this is accomplished by ameliorating excess hydrochloric acid in the stomach.
