Mechanism of action
Normal saline (0.9% sodium chloride) is a physiologically balanced electrolyte solution that maintains osmotic equilibrium with body fluids. When injected bilaterally, it serves as a vehicle for local tissue hydration, mechanical support, or as a control/placebo comparator in clinical studies. The solution has no active pharmacological mechanism beyond fluid and electrolyte delivery.
Approved indications
- Likely used as a control or placebo comparator in clinical trials
Common side effects
- Local injection site reactions (pain, swelling, erythema)
- Minimal systemic adverse events expected
