How it works
Large molecular size of this medication prevents its movement out of the vascular space. As such, an osmotic gradient is created which moves fluid from the tissues into the intravascular system . In the kidney, it moves into the glomerular filtrate which raises the osmotic pressure and induces diuresis. The pH range is 4.5 - 7.5.
