What Is Sodium Chloride 1GM?

Sodium Chloride 1GM is an oral salt tablet containing 1 gram of sodium chloride, the same compound as ordinary table salt, in a measured prescription dose. Sodium and chloride are essential electrolytes that help maintain fluid balance, nerve function, and muscle activity. These tablets are used when the body loses too much sodium — for example, through heavy sweating during work or exercise in hot conditions — or when a provider needs to correct mild sodium depletion. It should be taken with plenty of water and only as directed, since too much sodium can be harmful.

Prevention of heat cramps due to heat exposure
