'''Mannitol''' or  '''hexan-1,2,3,4,5,6-hexol''' (C<sub>6</sub>H<sub>8</sub>(OH)<sub>6</sub>) is an [[osmosis|osmotic]] [[diuretic]] agent and a weak [[kidney|renal]] [[vasodilator]]. It is a [[sorbitol]] [[stereoisomer]].
<!--Patient Counseling Information-->


It was originally isolated from manna, and may also be referred to as '''Mannite''' and '''Manna Sugar'''.<ref>Cooley's Cyclopaedia of Practical Receipts, 6th ed. (1880)</ref>

==Chemical properties==
There is limited information regarding <i>Patient Counseling Information</i> of {{PAGENAME}} in the drug label.
Chemically, mannitol is a [[sugar alcohol]], or a [[polyol]]; it is similar to [[xylitol]] or [[sorbitol]].  However, mannitol has a tendency to lose a [[hydrogen]] [[ion]] in aqueous solutions, which causes the solution to become [[acid]]ic. For this, it is not uncommon to add a substance to adjust its [[pH]], such as [[sodium bicarbonate]].


==Uses==
<!--Precautions with Alcohol-->
Mannitol is used clinically to reduce acutely raised [[intracranial pressure]], until more definitive treatment can be given, e.g. after [[head trauma]] (although significant controversy exists over this use), and to treat patients with [[oliguric renal failure]].  It is administered [[intravenous]]ly, and is filtered by the [[glomerulus]] of the [[kidney]], but is incapable of being reabsorbed from the [[renal tubule]], resulting in decreased water and [[Sodium|Na]]<sup>+</sup> reabsorption via its [[osmosis|osmotic]] effect.  Consequently, mannitol increases water and Na<sup>+</sup> excretion, thereby decreasing extracellular fluid volume.


Mannitol fermentation can be used to distinguish species of bacteria from eachother. For this process, MSA Mannitol-Salt Agar could be used, thereby allowing both testing mannitol fermentation and tolerance to salt. In the MSA Agar, phenol red pH indicator turns yellow in the presence of acid by-products of mannitol fermentation. Staphylococcus aureus ferments mannitol. S. aureus changes the color of the medium from pink to yellow due to acid by-products of mannitol fermentation .Staphylococcus epidermidis grows on MSA, but does not ferment mannitol (media remains light pink in color & colonies are colorless.
|alcohol=


Mannitol can also be used to open the [[blood-brain barrier]] by temporarily shrinking the tightly coupled [[endothelial cell]]s that make up the barrier. This makes mannitol indispensable for delivering various drugs directly to the [[brain]] (e.g. in the treatment of [[Alzheimer's disease]]).
* Alcohol-{{PAGENAME}} interaction has not been established. Talk to your doctor about the effects of taking alcohol with this medication.


Mannitol is also used as a [[sweetener]] for people with [[diabetes]]. Since mannitol has a negative [[heat of solution]], it is used as a sweetener in "breath-freshening" candies, the cooling effect adding to the fresh feel. In doses larger than 20g, mannitol acts as a [[laxative]], and is sometimes sold as a laxative for children.
<!--Brand Names-->


It is sometimes used as an [[adulterant]] or [[cutting agent]] for [[heroin]], [[methamphetamine]]s or other [[illicit drug]]s. In popular culture, when it is used in this manner, it is often referred to as ''baby laxative''.  Many television shows and films depicting drug culture make such references to ''baby laxative'' when in fact they are referring to Mannitol.
|brandNames=


Mannitol can also be used to temporarily encapsulate a sharp object (such as a helix on a lead for an [[artificial pacemaker]]) while it is passing through the venous system. Because it dissolves readily in blood, the sharp point will become exposed by the time it reaches its destination.
* ®<ref>{{Cite web | title = | url =  }}</ref>


Mannitol may be administered in cases of severe [[Ciguatera]] poisoning.  Severe [[ciguatoxin]], or "tropical fish poisoning" can produce stroke-like symptoms.
<!--Look-Alike Drug Names-->


Mannitol is a non-permeating molecule i.e. it cannot cross biological membranes.
|lookAlike=


Mannitol is commonly used in the circuit prime of a [[heart lung machine]] during [[cardiopulmonary bypass]] (CPB). The presence of mannitol preserves renal function during the times of low blood flow and pressure, while the patient is on bypass. The solution prevents the swelling of [[endothelial cell]]s in the kidney, which may have otherwise reduced blood flow to this area and resulted in cell damage.

Mannitol is also being developed by an Australian pharmaceutical company as a treatment for cystic fibrosis and bronchiectasis and as a diagnostic test for airway hyperresponsiveness. The mannitol is orally inhaled as a dry powder through what is known as an osmohaler. The critical component of the mannitol being the particle size distribution (PSD). The company has marketing approval for its diagnostic in Australia and Europe and is currently applying for approval from the FDA.

The three studies<ref>Cruz J, Minoja G, Okuchi K.

Although several authors are listed, the others had no knowledge of how, where, or even if the patients were recruited, meaning that the papers were essentially conducted by Dr. Cruz, who killed himself in 2005. Further, the Federal University of São Paulo, which he gave as his affiliation, has never employed him. Currently, therefore, the [[Cochrane Collaboration|Cochrane review]] recommending mannitol<ref>Wakai A, Roberts I, Schierhout G. Mannitol for acute traumatic brain injury. Cochrane Database Syst Rev. 2005 Oct 19;(4):CD001049. PMID 16235278</ref> has been withdrawn pending re-evaluation, as there is some evidence that mannitol may worsen cerebral oedema<ref>Kaufmann AM, Cardoso ER. Aggravation of vasogenic cerebral edema by multiple-dose mannitol. J Neurosurg. 1992 Oct;77(4):584-9. PMID 1527619</ref>.
