Key Features & Clinical Applications

  • Excel® Environmental Technology: The biologically inert plastic bag eliminates the use of PVC or DEHP, removing the risk of toxic plasticizer leaching into the medication.

  • Isotonic Formulation: Matches standard human plasma osmolarity (308 mOsmol/L) with a specific gravity of 1.006, protecting red blood cells from osmotic stress during quick fluid expansion.

  • Dual Port Architecture: Outfitted with dedicated, independent ports for additive injection and administration set spike insertion to simplify clinical compounding.

  • Clear Visualization: The transparent polyolefin envelope allows for immediate visual inspection of potential particulate matter or drug color changes prior to administration.

  • Clinical Use: Indicated for extracellular fluid replacement, mild sodium depletion, metabolic alkalosis due to fluid loss, and general vascular access maintenance.

⚠️ Usage Note: Single-dose container. This product is completely preservative-free; do not store or reuse any remaining volume following single-port punctuation.

⚠️ Safety Alert: Inspect for minute leaks by squeezing the flexible inner bag firmly before stripping the protective outer overwrap. Discard immediately if leaks are found or if the solution shows cloudiness.

⚠️ Compounding Warning: When adding supplementary drug compounds, ensure full material and chemical compatibility with the solution base. Fully agitate the mixture before hanging.
