Sodium Chloride 0.9 percent Bag

• Sterile nonpyrogenic
• Isotonic solution
• Single dose plastic container
• Used as a sterile irrigating solution

Dosage And Administration
The volume of solution needed will vary with the nature and duration of the procedure.
If desired, warm in overpouch to near body temperature in a water bath or oven heated to not more than 45C/113F.
Parenteral drug products should be inspected visually for particulate matter and discoloration prior to administration whenever solution and container permit.

Warnings
Not for injection.
Because fluids used for irrigation may be absorbed into the general circulation, solutions containing sodium ion should be used with great care in patients with congestive heart failure, severe renal insufficiency, and in clinical states in which there exists edema with sodium retention.
The contents of an opened container should be used promptly to minimize the possibility of bacterial growth or pyrogen formation. Discard the unused portion of irrigating solution since no antimicrobial agent has been added.

Precautions
Because some of the fluid used for irrigation may be absorbed, caution must be exercised in the volume of irrigating fluid used especially with solutions containing the sodium ion in patients receiving corticosteroids or corticotropin.
Do not administer unless the solution is clear and the seal is intact.

Adverse Reactions
If an adverse reaction does occur, discontinue the administration, evaluate the patient, institute appropriate therapeutic countermeasures, and save the remainder of the fluid for examination if deemed necessary.
