Lactated Ringers?

[nutT]

Is it safe to use lactated ringers solution for infusion? I was just looking at an order I placed and I ordered it by mistake.

I’ve used it before no problem. It actually doesn’t have the sting as bad like saline does, at least for me. It also seems to take a little longer to absorb fully. But that’s no issue to me

I used the lactated ringers and it went just fine. A few days later I used .9 saline it also worked good also but did burn going in.
