Mechanism of Action:

Ascorbic acid (Vitamin C) serves as a vital cofactor in enzymatic reactions and is known for its antioxidant properties. It’s pivotal in collagen synthesis, facilitating wound healing, and supports the immune system by enhancing the activity of phagocytes and lymphocytes. Its primary role as an electron donor stabilizes free radicals, mitigating oxidative stress and preventing cellular damage. Moreover, vitamin C or its metabolite(s) may exert a powerful chelating effect, decreasing the body's load of trace metals which may otherwise contribute to oxidative damage.

Directions for Use:

Administration: For intravenous or intramuscular use only. Administered by a healthcare professional.
Dosage: Follow physician's orders. Dosage may vary depending on the specific needs and condition of the patient.
Preparation: Ensure the solution is clear and free from particulates. Use aseptic techniques for withdrawal of solution from the vial.
Storage: Store at controlled room temperature. Protect from light, and keep the vial tightly closed when not in use.

Warnings:

• Allergic Reactions: Hypersensitivity reactions may occur, including localized site reactions or systemic involvement.
  
• Excessive Dosing: While rare, high doses may increase the risk of oxalate nephropathy or induce diarrhea or gastrointestinal upset among individuals with pre-existing complications.
  
• Sepsis Management: Use cautiously in those with ischemia and mixed venous blood conditions, as hemodynamic changes and metabolic imbalances may be exacerbated.
  
• Surgery: In peri-operative patients, increased monitoring is advised because vitamin C can interfere with laboratory tests and influence biomarker readings expected in surgical procedures.
  
• Drug Interactions: Monitor patients for signs of enhanced sedative effects when administrated with estrogens or barbiturates due to C-induced hepatic actions enhancing metabolic transformations.

Side Effects:

• Common Side Effects:  Include dizziness, headache, nausea, or localized irritation at the injection site.
  
• Rare Side Effects: Hyperoxaluria, hypoglycemia, and notably in individuals with G6PD deficiency, hemolysis can occur if care is not observed.

It is essential to initiate use under strict medical guidance and report any unforeseen reactions post-administration promptly to healthcare professionals. The McGuff Company stands as a trusted name in providing excellence and reliable solutions in high-dose vitamin therapy.
