What is an example of a isotonic solution?

Answer:
Normal saline solution (0.9% NaCl) is considered isotonic with blood (although it actually has a slightly higher degree of osmolality). Ringers lactate is also considered isotonic.


5% Dextrose solution is also considered hypotonic compared with blood, because although it is isotonic while infusing, the dextrose is metabolized and free water is left, which is hypotonic.
