Thank you Robert. Yes, it does seem vague. But I do find in Spain that they prefer to say "cada 12/8 horas", etc., than twice a day/ three times a day, and so on. So I imagine it's something on these lines.

agree Stephen D. Moore : This makes sense to me.

Many thanks, Stephen, I can't see what else it could be.
agree Chema Nieto Castañón : O Frecuencia Diaria (cada) 24 horas. La idea en cualquier caso es la misma y la posología de un litro de glucosalino cada 24 horas parece razonable, a priori, en un paciente cardiológico. Saludos varios!

Muchas gracias Chema. No se me ocurrió frecuencia diaria, tienes razón. Pero también, como dices, llega a ser lo mismo. .

4 KudoZ points awarded for this answer. Comment: "Thank you, Marie. What you suggest is eminently plausible. The original strikes me as a vague indication (i.e., no specific time of administration is indicated, or even general time period - a.m., p.m., bedtime, etc.). Many thanks."
