Active Ingredient & Action
Mannitol, the active ingredient in OSMITROL INJECTION 10%, acts as an osmotic diuretic. It works by drawing water from the brain tissue into the bloodstream, thereby reducing the amount of fluid in the brain and alleviating swelling. This process helps to decrease intracranial pressure and improve blood flow to the brain.
