A member asked:
Hypertonic iv solutions in hospital for lowering intracranial pressure; would drinking hypertonic solutions / drinks have a similar affect? (but perhaps to a lesser degree due to digestion??
A doctor has provided 1 answer
You would be incapable of matching a hospital intravenous therapy by ingesting an oral hypertonic drink. If you, or a friend or relatives, suffer increased intracranial pressure, close management from a neurologist or neurosurgeon would be mandatory.
