Bacteriostatic Sterile Water 10ml

Bacteriostatic water is a sterile solution containing 0.9% benzyl alcohol, which serves as a preservative. It is primarily used in medical settings for the following purposes:

• Reconstituting or diluting medications
• Flushing intravenous lines
• Preparing injectable solutions

Key Features:

1. Sterile: Free from living microorganisms
2. Prevents bacterial growth: Inhibits the multiplication of bacteria without destroying them
3. Extended shelf life: Suitable for multiple doses over time
4. Limited storage duration: Generally used within 30 days of opening

Unlike standard sterile water, bacteriostatic water contains a preservative, enabling multiple uses from a single vial. However, it is not suitable for all medications or patients, particularly neonates or individuals with sensitivities to benzyl alcohol
