Serocit 46.7% Injection

Serocit 46.7% Injection contains an active component as Sodium Citrate. This medication is commonly used for various purposes, primarily in managing acidosis and as an anticoagulant for certain medical procedures. Acidosis occurs when the body's pH becomes too acidic due to an imbalance in the body's production or elimination of acids.
