Physiological saline

Physiological saline, also known as saline solution, is a sterile mixture of water and salt (sodium chloride) that closely mimics the salt concentration in your body’s fluids. It is commonly used in medical settings to hydrate patients, clean wounds, or deliver medications because it is safe and compatible with your body. The typical concentration is about 0.9% salt, which helps maintain proper fluid balance without causing irritation or harm. Physiological saline is an essential and versatile tool in healthcare, ensuring safe and effective treatment for various medical needs.
