Can anyone tell me if there is a difference between 5% Dextrose Injection and the 5% Dextrose & 0.9% Sodium Chloride Injection from the above link? I appreciate the help.

Re: Dextrose vs Dextrose & Saline
They are quite different fluids ... See my post in this thread ... viewtopic.php?f=9&t=41640 ... the osmo of D5NS (D5 + 0.9 saline) is significantly HIGHER than blood osmo thus pulls more fluid into the scrotum. So you get both the benefit of dextrose pulling fluid and osmo pulling fluid. I have to admit the D5NS can cause some discomfort for me when I use it. But the growth factor is QUITE nice. I hope that helps.
