Description
|
Potassium Chloride in Lactated Ringer’s and Dextrose (5%) Injection, USP is a sterile, nonpyrogenic solution for fluid and electrolyte replenishment and caloric supply in a single dose container for intravenous administration. It contains no antimicrobial agents. Composition, osmolarity, pH, ionic concentration and caloric content are shown in Table 1. Dextrose is derived from corn. The chemical name, structural formula, and molecular weight of the active ingredients are shown in Table 2. The VIAFLEX plastic container is fabricated from polyvinyl chloride (PL 146 Plastic). Small amounts of its chemical components (e.g., di-2-ethylhexyl phthalate [DEHP]) may leach out within the expiration period. Animal tests, USP biological tests for plastic containers, and tissue culture toxicity studies have demonstrated that the container meets safety requirements. The container is overwrapped to provide protection from the physical environment and an additional moisture barrier.
