Intravenous sugar solution, also known as dextrose solution, is a mixture of dextrose (glucose) and water. It is used to treat low blood sugar or water loss without electrolyte loss. Water loss without electrolyte loss may occur in fever, hyperthyroidism, high blood calcium, or diabetes insipidus.
A patient need to be on drip of glucose when the patient has loss of water and electrolytes and he is dehydrated and also when the patient can't take food orally .
hope it helps u.....
