IRRIGATING SOLUTION G IN PLASTIC CONTAINER vs RESECTISOL
Comparing the clinical profiles, pharmacokinetic behaviors, and safety indices of these two therapeutic agents.
Irrigating solution G is a sterile, non-pyrogenic, isotonic solution used for irrigation during urological procedures. It contains glycine, which is an amino acid that does not conduct electricity, making it suitable for use with electrosurgical instruments. The solution helps maintain a clear surgical field and prevents hemolysis.
Acetic acid acts as a sclerosing agent by inducing protein denaturation and inflammatory response, leading to fibrosis and obliteration of vascular channels. It also has antimicrobial properties by disrupting cell membranes.
Not applicable; irrigating solution G is used topically during surgery.
Adults: 1–2 mL/kg intravenously once daily.
