  • Large Volume: The 30 mL vial size is ideal for high-volume clinics or pharmacies that perform frequent medication reconstitutions.

  • Standard Compatibility: Meets all USP requirements for pH, particulate matter, and sterility for parenteral diluents.

Clinical Applications

  • Medication Reconstitution: Used to dissolve lyophilized powders into liquid form for injection.

  • Drug Dilution: Used to adjust the concentration of liquid medications to meet specific patient dosage requirements.

  • Pharmacy Compounding: Often utilized in cleanroom environments for the preparation of sterile injectable batches.

⚠️ Black Box & Safety Alert: NOT FOR USE IN NEONATES. Benzyl alcohol has been associated with “Gasping Syndrome” (a fatal toxicity) in newborns and premature infants. Use only preservative-free diluents for this population.

⚠️ Usage Note: When using to dilute drugs, ensure the drug is compatible with the preservative (Benzyl Alcohol). Check the medication’s package insert for specific diluent requirements.
