Only use the Charger that has been provided.

Do not use if the Disposable Unit was dropped or if any parts appear to be broken or damaged . Use a new one.

Step 2

Charge the Reusable Unit. Plug the Charger into the back of the white Reusable Unit and a power outlet. Check the Battery Light:

  • When the Battery Light turns solid blue, unplug the charger from the Reusable Unit. The Reusable Unit is ready to use.
  • If the Battery Light is flashing blue, wait for charging to finish.
  • If any lights are red, unplug the Charger and plug it back in. If the lights are still red, go to Troubleshooting: Lights and Tones Table for instructions.

    Always charge the Reusable Unit before each infusion.

Prepare the Medicine

Step 3

Wash your hands with soap and water.

Step 4

Check the expiration date on the Lasix ONYU Kit.

Do not use if the expiration date has passed .

Step 5

Gather all supplies needed. On a clean, flat, well-lit work surface, open 1 Lasix ONYU Kit and remove the contents.

Do not open the contents until you are ready to start the infusion.

Do not use the Disposable Unit if the sealed packaging appears to be damaged. Use a new one.

Do not use the Disposable Unit if it was dropped or if any parts appear to be broken. Use a new one.

Step 6

Remove Prefilled Cartridge, Disposable Unit, and 2 alcohol pads from packaging:

  • Remove the Disposable Unit from its sealed package.

Do not remove the paper liner from the back of the Disposable Unit.

Step 7

Check the Prefilled Cartridge appearance.

Do not use the Prefilled Cartridge if the medicine is cloudy , appears yellow-brown , or you see floating particles.

Step 8

Wipe the silver top of the Prefilled Cartridge with an alcohol pad.

Step 9

Push the Prefilled Cartridge into the green Disposable Unit with the silver top inserted first.

The Prefilled Cartridge is fully inserted when the bottom of the Prefilled Cartridge is at the tip

of the arrow on the Disposable Unit.

Prepare the Lasix ONYU Infusor

Step 10

Check the following:

  • The Reusable Unit Battery Light is solid blue, and
  • The Charger is disconnected from the Reusable Unit.

    Slide together the white Reusable Unit and green Disposable Unit together until the Status Light on the Reusable Unit turns on.

Step 11

Check the Status Light.

  • If the Status Light is blue and flashing fast, and you hear the OK Tone (1 long beep), continue to Step 12. The Lasix ONYU Infusor is ready to start your infusion.
  • The Lasix ONYU Infusor will remain ready to start infusion for 7 hours.
  • If the Status Light is flashing red and you hear the Alarm Tone (2 short beeps), do not use the Lasix ONYU Infusor. Go to Troubleshooting: The Status Light is Flashing Red for instructions.
  • If the Battery Light is solid red, do not use the Lasix ONYU Infusor. Go to Troubleshooting: Checking the Reusable Unit Battery for instructions.

Prepare the Application Site

Step 12

Choose a site on the stomach, above the beltline, to the left or right of the belly button.

Trim excessive hair at the site. This will help the Lasix ONYU Infusor stick to the skin.

Alternate (rotate) sites between left and right sides of the stomach with each infusion.

Do not choose a site where:

  • the skin is irritated, broken, tender, red, bruised, or hard,
  • the skin is wet or sweaty,
  • there are folds in the skin when standing up straight, or
  • belts, waistbands, or tight clothing may rub against or move the Lasix ONYU Infusor.

Step 13

Wipe the site with an alcohol pad.

Let dry for at least 10 seconds.

Attach the Lasix ONYU Infusor

Step 14

Hold the blue tab with one hand and use the other hand to peel off the paper liner from the adhesive on the back of the Lasix ONYU Infusor.

Leave the sticky adhesive on the Lasix ONYU Infusor. Only remove the paper liner.

Do not touch the sticky adhesive with your fingers or let it touch any surfaces before sticking the Lasix ONYU Infusor to your stomach.

Step 15

While standing up straight, press the Lasix ONYU Infusor onto the site on your stomach you wiped with the alcohol pad.

Make sure the Status Light and the Start/Stop Button are facing up in a horizontal position as shown, so you can see them when the Lasix ONYU Infusor is on your stomach.

Step 16

Rub the edges of the adhesive with a finger to get the Lasix ONYU Infusor to stick well.

Start the Infusion

Start your infusion within 7 hours of connecting the Reusable Unit and Disposable Unit. If more than 7 hours pass without starting your infusion, the Lasix ONYU Infusor will time out and the infusion cannot be delivered (go to Troubleshooting: The Status Light is Flashing Red).

Step 17

Press and hold the Start/Stop Button until you hear the motor and see the blue Status Light change to flashing slow.

The needle will automatically insert into your skin after the Start/Stop Button is pressed. You may feel a slight pinch.

You will hear the motor start and stop often during your infusion. The motor runs for a few seconds at a time then pauses for several minutes.

Step 18

Check the Status Light.

  • If the Status Light is blue and flashing slow, and you hear the OK Tone (1 long beep), the infusion has started. You will hear the motor running.
  • If the Status Light is flashing red, and you hear the Alarm Tone (2 short beeps), the infusion did not start. Go to Troubleshooting: The Status Light is Flashing Red for instructions.
  • If the Status Light is blue and flashing fast, and you hear the OK Tone (1 long beep), the infusion did not start. Repeat Step 17 .
  • For additional assistance go to Troubleshooting: Lights and Tones Table for instructions or call 1-855-452-7496.

During the Infusion

Step 19

Wait 5 hours for the Lasix ONYU Infusor to deliver the full infusion.

You will see the blue Status Light flashing slow and sometimes hear the motor running.

Check the Lasix ONYU Infusor every now and then to make sure it is working properly.

Do not remove the Lasix ONYU Infusor from your stomach until the infusion is done. The infusion is complete when the Status Light is solid blue and you hear the OK Tone (1 long beep). Go to Troubleshooting: How to Stop the Infusor Early if you need to stop the infusion early.

End the Infusion

Step 20

After 5 hours, check the Status Light.

  • If the Status Light is solid blue, and you hear the OK Tone (1 long beep), the infusion is done .
  • If the Status Light is flashing red, and you hear the Alarm Tone (2 short beeps), an error happened. Go to Troubleshooting: The Status Light is Flashing Red.
  • If the Status Light is blue and flashing slow, and you hear the OK Tone (1 long beep), the infusion is not done yet. Continue to wait.

The needle automatically pulls in (retracts) when the infusion is done. You may feel a slight pinch.

Step 21

When the infusion is done, remove the Lasix ONYU Infusor from your stomach. Peel the Lasix ONYU Infusor off the skin by holding down the skin and pulling the blue tab away from the stomach.

You might have some discomfort after you remove the Lasix ONYU Infusor. This discomfort should quickly go away, but some redness of the skin may remain. If there is any bleeding, pat with a small cotton ball or apply a small adhesive bandage over the site.

Confirm the Infusion Worked

Step 22

Look in the window on the back of the Infusor to check whether all the medicine was delivered.

  • If the middle of the window is all gray (whole gray stopper is visible with very little or no liquid), all of the medicine was delivered.

    If you see anything else (like a lot of liquid, a large bubble in the liquid, no gray stopper, or only part of the gray stopper), some of the medicine was not delivered. Call your healthcare provider right away.

Step 23

Confirm the medicine worked.

  • If you urinate a lot (at least 2 times during the 5-hour infusion), the medicine worked.
  • If you urinate less than 2 times (during the 5-hour infusion), the medicine may not have worked. Call your healthcare provider right away.

Throw Away (Disposal), Cleaning, and Storage

Step 24

Pull apart the green Disposable Unit and white Reusable Unit.

The Reusable Unit automatically turns off when the two parts are separated.

Step 25

Do not save and re-use the green Disposable Unit or Prefilled Cartridge. They are for one-time use only.

Throw away the green Disposable Unit into an FDA-cleared sharps disposal container.

You may obtain a free sharps disposal container from SQ Innovation. Visit www.Lasix-ONYU.com/sharps/ or call 1-855-452-7496 to have a container mailed to you at no charge.

Alternatively, if you do not have an FDA-cleared sharps disposal container, you may use a household container that is:

  • made of heavy-duty plastic,
  • can be closed with a tight fitting, puncture-resistant lid, without sharps being able to come out,
  • upright and stable during use,
  • leak-resistant, and
  • properly labeled to warn of hazardous waste inside the container.

When your Sharps container is almost full, you will need to follow your community guidelines for the right way to dispose of your sharps disposal container. There may be state or local laws about how you throw away used needles and syringes. For more information about safe sharps disposal and for specific information about sharps disposal in the state that you live in, go to the FDAs website at:

https://www.fda.gov/medical-devices/safely-using-sharps-needles-and-syringes-home-work-and-travel/best-way-get-rid-used-needles-and-other-sharps

Do not dispose of your used sharps disposal container in your household trash unless your community guidelines permit this.

Do not recycle the green Disposable Unit and used sharps disposal container or throw them away into household trash.

Important: Always keep the sharps disposal container out of the reach of children.

Scan the code below with your phone for a sharps disposal location near you or call Safe Needle Disposal at 1-800-643-1643.

Step 26

Wipe the white Reusable Unit with a clean, water-damp cloth to remove visible dirt right after use. Let dry completely before storing.

If needed, a mild detergent, like dish soap, may be added to the damp cleaning cloth.

Do not use harsh cleaners that contain bleach, alcohol, ammonia, or other solvents. These cleaners may damage the Reusable Unit.

Do not submerge the Reusable Unit in liquids or spray liquids directly on the surface. It contains parts that should not get wet.

Step 27

Store the Reusable Unit, Charger, and any remaining Lasix ONYU Kits for next use.

  • Keep at room temperature between 68°F and 77°F (20°C and 25°C).
  • Do not refrigerate or freeze.
  • Keep in a dark place to protect from light.
  • Keep dry.
  • Keep extra Prefilled Cartridges and Disposable Units in their original packaging until it is time to use them.
