Chemical formula: C₆H₁₂O₆ Molecular mass: 180.156 g/mol PubChem compound: 107526
The metabolism of glucose is an energy source for the body.
The pharmacodynamic properties of the glucose solution are those of glucose, which forms the principal source of energy in cellular metabolism. Glucose solution is given as a source of carbohydrate in parenteral nutrition.
The pharmacodynamics of the additive will depend on the nature of the drug used.
Glucose is metabolized via pyruvic or lactic acid to carbon dioxide and water with the release of energy.
The pharmacokinetics of the additive will depend on the nature of the drug used.
The safety of glucose in animals is not relevant in view of its presence as a normal component in animal and human plasma.
The safety of the additive should be considered separately.
