Description

Calcium Chloride 10% 10mL ABBJ 10/Bx is a sterile, injectable solution supplied in prefilled LifeShield* Abboject syringes. Each syringe contains 10% calcium chloride, equivalent to 100 mg/mL of calcium chloride dihydrate. It is accompanied by a 20-gauge, 1-1/2-inch needle for intravenous administration. This product is commonly used in emergency and critical care settings to address acute calcium deficiencies and other life-threatening conditions.

Calcium chloride plays a vital role in physiological processes, including muscle contraction, nerve transmission, and blood coagulation. It is often administered in cases of hypocalcemia, hyperkalemia, hypermagnesemia, or calcium channel blocker overdose. Its rapid action restores calcium ion levels, stabilizing cardiac and neuromuscular function.

This medication must be administered intravenously by a healthcare professional under strict monitoring. Improper administration or extravasation can lead to local tissue damage or necrosis. Dosage is adjusted according to patient needs and condition severity. Careful monitoring of serum calcium levels, cardiac function, and overall patient response is essential during administration.
