Normal Saline:

Sodium chloride, or salt, and water are combined to create saline, also referred to as saline solution. It can be used in medicine for a variety of purposes, such as cleaning wounds, removing and storing contact lenses, and treating dry eyes. It is administered intravenously to treat dehydration, including that caused by gastroenteritis and diabetic ketoacidosis. Excessive quantities can cause fluid overload, edoema, acidosis, and excessive blood sodium levels. Excessive use may cause osmotic demyelination syndrome in people with chronic low blood sodium levels.
