Bacteriostatic Water for Injection

Bacteriostatic Water for Injection

Bacteriostatic water is used to dilute or dissolve medications intended for aqueous injection.

Bacteriostatic Water for Injection is a sterile, nonpyrogenic water solution used for diluting or reconstituting medications for injection. Let’s delve into the details:

  • Description:

    • Bacteriostatic Water for Injection, USP contains either 0.9% (9 mg/mL) or 1.1% (11 mg/mL) benzyl alcohol as a bacteriostatic preservative.
    • It is supplied in a multiple-dose container, allowing repeated withdrawals for drug dilution or dissolution.
    • The pH of this solution is 5.7 (ranging from 4.5 to 7.0).
    • The semi-rigid vial is made from a specially formulated polyolefin, ensuring safety and proper volume maintenance without the need for a vapor barrier1.
  • Clinical Pharmacology:

    • Water constitutes about 70% of total body weight and plays a crucial role in maintaining fluid balance.
    • Bacteriostatic Water, when used solely for diluting or dissolving drugs for parenteral injection, has minimal impact on fluid balance.
    • Sodium (Na+) is essential for maintaining physiologic equilibrium, and Bacteriostatic Water does not significantly affect this balance except in very small infants1.
  • Indications and Usage:

    • Bacteriostatic Water is indicated for diluting or dissolving drugs for intravenousintramuscular, or subcutaneous injection, following the manufacturer’s instructions.
    • However, it should not be used in neonates due to the potential toxicity of benzyl alcohol in this population.
    • Additionally, it is not recommended for fluid replacement or for epidural or spinal anesthesia procedures1.

In summary, Bacteriostatic Water for Injection serves as a valuable pharmaceutic aid, ensuring the safety and efficacy of injected medications. If you have any more questions or need further information, feel free to ask! 😊
