bacteriostatic water for injection
bacteriostatic water for injection Bacteriostatic water is a water-based substance, which is made up of largely sterile water with 0.9% benzyl alcohol. This substance is primarily used for the dissolution or dilution of medicines. The reason as to why it is referred to as bacteriostatic water is because the benzyl alcohol prevents bacteria growth, and allows a vial to be re-entered several times. Bacteriostatic Water (BAC) plays a crucial role in the transmission of medicines intravenously, and even intramuscularly.
What is the difference between bacteriostatic and sterile water?
Sterile water has been cleared of any contaminants, but it does not contain any antibacterial agents. Therefore, it can only be used once. Bacteriostatic water contains agents that prevent bacterial growth, making it suitable to use more than once.
Can I use sterile water instead of bacteriostatic water?
It depends on the application. Sterile water is used for irrigating wounds and injecting medications, but it cannot be used more than once. Bacteriostatic water cannot be used for irrigating wounds, but it can be used more than once for injections.
bacteriostatic water
It is only safe to inject bacteriostatic water when it is diluted with the appropriate medication and aseptic techniques are closely followed. Injecting bacteriostatic water alone can cause hemolysis (the rupturing of blood vessels).
- Bacteriostatic water for injection, USP, is a sterile, multiple-dose, non-pyrogenic water for injection.
- Bacteriostatic Water for Injection is supplied in a multiple-dose 30 mL plastic flip top vial and is not pressurized.
- Contains 0.9% (9 mg/mL) of benzyl alcohol added as a bacteriostatic preservative.
DESCRIPTION
The following preparation is designed solely for parenteral use only after addition of drugs that require dilution or must be dissolved in an aqueous vehicle prior to injection.
Bacteriostatic Water for Injection, USP is a sterile, nonpyrogenic preparation of water for injection containing 0.9% (9 mg/mL) of benzyl alcohol added as a bacteriostatic preservative. It is supplied in a multiple-dose container from which repeated withdrawals may be made to dilute or dissolve drugs for injection. The pH is 5.7 (4.5 to 7.0).
Water for Injection, USP is chemically designated H2O.
The semi-rigid vial is fabricated from a specially formulated polyolefin. It is a copolymer of ethylene and propylene. The safety of the plastic has been confirmed by tests in animals according to USP biological standards for plastic containers. The container requires no vapor barrier to maintain the proper labeled volume.
CLINICAL PHARMACOLOGY
Water is an essential constituent of all body tissues and accounts for approximately 70% of total body weight. Average normal adult daily requirement ranges from two to three liters (1.0 to 1.5 liters each for insensible water loss by perspiration and urine production).
Water balance is maintained by various regulatory mechanisms. Water distribution depends primarily on the concentration of electrolytes in the body compartments and sodium (Na+) plays a major role in maintaining physiologic equilibrium.
The small volume of fluid provided by Bacteriostatic Water for Injection, USP when used only as a pharmaceutic aid for diluting or dissolving drugs for parenteral injection, is unlikely to exert a significant effect on fluid balance except possibly in very small infants.
INDICATIONS AND USAGE
This parenteral preparation is indicated only for diluting or dissolving drugs for intravenous, intramuscular or subcutaneous injection, according to instructions of the manufacturer of the drug to be administered.
CONTRAINDICATIONS
Due to the potential toxicity of benzyl alcohol in neonates, solutions containing benzyl alcohol must not be used in this patient population.
Parenteral preparations with benzyl alcohol should not be used for fluid replacement.
Parenteral preparations containing benzyl alcohol should not be used in epidural or spinal anesthesia procedures.
Bacteriostatic Water for Injection, USP must be made approximately isotonic prior to use.
