| sodium nitrate | NaNO3;formerly used for dysentery and as a diuretic. Synonym: Chilean saltpeter, cubic niter. (05 Mar 2000) |
|---|---|
| sodium nitrite | <chemical> Nitrous acid sodium salt. Used in many industrial processes, in meat curing, colouring, and preserving, and as a reagent in analytical chemistry. It is used therapeutically as an antidote in cyanide poisoning. The compound is toxic and mutagenic and will react in vivo with secondary or tertiary amines thereby producing highly carcinogenic nitrosamines. Pharmacological action: antidotes, food preservatives, indicators and reagents, mutagens. Chemical name: Nitrous acid, sodium salt (12 Dec 1998) |
| sodium nitroferricyanide | (Na2FeCCN)5NO-5H2O;a rapidly acting and potent arterial and venous vasodilator used in hypertensive emergencies and administered intravenously. Acts in a manner similar to vasodilator nitrates and nitrites by donating nitric oxide which produces vasodilation; also used as a reagent for detection of organic compounds in the urine. Synonym: sodium nitroferricyanide. (05 Mar 2000) |
| sodium nitroprusside | (Na2FeCCN)5NO-5H2O;a rapidly acting and potent arterial and venous vasodilator used in hypertensive emergencies and administered intravenously. Acts in a manner similar to vasodilator nitrates and nitrites by donating nitric oxide which produces vasodilation; also used as a reagent for detection of organic compounds in the urine. Synonym: sodium nitroferricyanide. (05 Mar 2000) |
| sodium nucleate | Sodium salts of yeast acids, used in the treatment of anaemias, rheumatism, and gout. (05 Mar 2000) |
| sodium orthophosphate | Na2HPO4-H2O;a laxative. Synonym: dibasic sodium phosphate, sodium orthophosphate. Sodium phosphate P 32, anionic radioactive phosphorus in the form of a solution of sodium acid phosphate and sodium basic phosphate; a beta emitter with a half-life of 14.3 days; after administration, highest concentrations are found in rapidly proliferating tissues; it is used in the treatment of polycythemia vera, chronic myelogenous leukaemia, and osseous metastases. See: chromic phosphate P 32 colloidal suspension. (05 Mar 2000) |
| sodium oxybate | <chemical> Sodium 4-hydroxybutyrate. Anaesthetic used for both induction and maintenance. It may cause bradycardia and dyskinesias. Sodium oxybate has been supplied illicitly as a drug of abuse promoted for body building, and weight loss. Pharmacological action: anaesthesia adjuvants, anaesthetics, intravenous. Chemical name: Butanoic acid, 4-hydroxy-, monosodium salt (12 Dec 1998) |
| sodium p-aminohippurate | Used intravenously in renal function tests, to determine the renal plasma flow and the tubular excretion. (05 Mar 2000) |
| sodium p-aminophenylarsonate | H2N-C6H4-AsO(OH)(ONa)-3H 2O; a compound that was one of the first modern pentavalent arsenicals. Synonym: sodium arsanilate. (05 Mar 2000) |
| sodium perborate | NaBO2H2O2-3H2O;used in the extemporaneous preparation of hydrogen peroxide; a 2% solution is equivalent in germicidal action to 0.4% of hydrogen peroxide. (05 Mar 2000) |
| sodium peroxide | Na2O2;used externally as a paste or soap in the treatment of comedones and acne. (05 Mar 2000) |
| sodium pertechnetate | Na 99mTcO4;a radiopharmaceutical used for brain, thyroid, and salivary gland scanning. (05 Mar 2000) |
| sodium pertechnetate tc 99m | <chemical> A gamma-emitting radionuclide imaging agent used for the diagnosis of diseases in many tissues, particularly in the gastrointestinal system, cardiovascular and cerebral circulation, brain, thyroid, and joints. Pharmacological action: radiopharmaceuticals. Chemical name: Technetate (99TcO41-), sodium, (T-4)- (12 Dec 1998) |
| sodium phenolsulfonate | Has been used in tonsillitis and as an intestinal antiseptic; has no antiseptic properties. Synonym: sodium sulfocarbolate. (05 Mar 2000) |
| sodium polyanhydromannuronic acid sulfate | An anticoagulant drug prepared from alginic acid and having an action similar to that of heparin. (05 Mar 2000) |
