Neither! Ringer's solution is specifically formulated to be isotonic with the body fluids of a particular taxa (ie. mammals, reptiles, teleost fishes, etc.).
For example, a mammalian Ringer's solution (useful on everything from lab mouse tissues to human blood samples) is isotonic at an osmolarity of about 0.3 OsM.

A cell would plump with water and possibly lyse in what solutions?
hypotonic solution
What solution would cause a cell to shiver hypotonic or hypertonic?
hypotonic
What is the ideal osmotic environment for an animal cell?
Hypotonic
Water enters a cell when the solution surrounding the cell is?
Hypotonic- i think. Hypertonic is when it shrinks and Lyses is when the cell burts from swelling too much. We did it with blood cells in my Anatomy and Physiology class.
Is lactated ringers or NS given for high blood pressure?
lactated ringers
Is lactated ringers the same as ringers lactate?
YES
What is D5 LR?
5% Dextrose in Lactated Ringers Soltuion.
Why does water for injection not require sterilization?
Normal saline or lactated ringers, or ringers lactate, is already sterilized. It needs no further sterilization.
Is normal saline given for low blood pressure or do you give lactated ringers?
NS
When administering packed red blood cells what fluid should be used?
lactated ringers
Can lactated ringers iv fluids increase lactic acid blood levels?
yes
Safe iv infusion rate for 1 liter lactated ringers Intravenous therapy?
one hour
What is the density of lactated ringers?
The osmolarity of the Lactated Ringer solution is about 140 millimoles. (It has got lot of sodium, very little potassium and calcium. It has enough chloride and bicarbonate. It is designed like extra cellular fluid.)

What iv solution do you hang with blood?
I believe it's Lactated Ringers with the packed RBC's connected to the line by a Y connector.
What is lactated ringers and what is its purpose?
Lactated Ringers is a type of intravenous fluid that contains electrolytes such as sodium, potassium, and calcium. Its purpose is to restore fluid and electrolyte balance in the body, especially during situations like dehydration, surgery, or critical illness.
