Directions for Use of Flexible Plastic Irrigation Containers

If desired, warm in overwrap to near body temperature in a water bath or oven heated to not more than 45°C. Parenteral drug products should be inspected visually for particulate matter and discoloration prior to administration whenever solution and container permit.

DIRECTIONS FOR USE

Tear overwrap down side at slit and remove solution container. Visually inspect the container. If the outlet port protector is damaged, detached, or not present, discard container as solution path sterility may be impaired. Some opacity of the plastic due to moisture absorption during the sterilization process may be observed. This is normal and does not affect the solution quality or safety. The opacity will diminish gradually. Check for minute leaks by squeezing bag firmly. If leaks are found, discard solution as sterility may be impaired. Use Aseptic Technique. 1.Suspend container using hanger hole. 2.Remove plastic protector from outlet port at bottom of container 3.Attach irrigation set. Refer to complete directions accompanying set. Exposure of pharmaceutical products to heat should be minimized. Avoid excessive heat. It is recommended the product be stored at room temperature (25°C): brief exposure up to 40°C does not adversely affect the product
