Abstract

With corticosteroids and diuretics, glycerol treatment may be an effective therapy of early edema accompanying focal brain ischemia. The suggested regimen for intravenous infusion is 500 ml of 10% glycerol solution during at least 2 h, twice a day, starting as soon as possible after stroke onset and continuing thereafter for 5--7 days.
