What IV fluids given to dehydration?

For dehydration, isotonic IV fluids such as Normal Saline (0.9% NaCl) or Lactated Ringer's solution are commonly administered. These fluids help restore electrolyte balance and hydration. In cases of severe dehydration, hypotonic solutions like Dextrose 5% in water (D5W) may also be used, especially if there is a need for additional glucose. The choice of fluid depends on the patient's specific needs and the severity of the dehydration.
