Sterile Water for Irrigation USP is supplied sterile and nonpyrogenic in single-dose 2000 and 3000 mL flexible irrigation containers packaged 4 per case.

Exposure of pharmaceutical products to heat should be minimized. Avoid excessive heat. Protect from freezing. It is recommended that the product be stored at room temperature (25°C); however, brief exposure up to 40°C does not adversely affect the product.

Sterile Water for Irrigation USP is a sterile, hypotonic, nonpyrogenic irrigating fluid or pharmaceutic aid (solvent) entirely composed of Sterile Water for Injection USP. It is prepared by distillation and contains no antimicrobial or bacteriostatic agents or added buffers.

The pH is 5.7 (5.0-7.0)

The plastic container is made from a multilayered film specifically developed for parenteral drugs. It contains no plasticizers and exhibits virtually no leachables. The solution contact layer is a rubberized copolymer of ethylene and propylene. The container is nontoxic and biologically inert. The container-solution unit is a closed system and is not dependent upon entry of external air during administration. The container is overwrapped to provide protection from the physical environment and to provide an additional moisture barrier when necessary.

Not made with natural rubber latex, PVC or DEHP.

Sterile Water for Irrigation USP is hypotonic and will cause hemolysis, and is not recommended for use during surgical procedures.

After opening container, its contents should be used promptly to minimize the possibility of bacterial growth or pyrogen formation.

Discard unused portion of irrigating solution since it contains no preservative.

Use as directed by physician.

This drug product should be inspected visually for particulate matter and discoloration prior to administration, whenever solution and container permit.

None known.

Use only if solution is clear and container and seal are intact.

Sterile Water for Irrigation USP may be used to prepare non-intravenously administered nutrient mixtures. It contains no electrolytes or other added substances. Refer to preparation instructions of particular mixture to be used. The plastic container may be used for administration of non-intravenous nutrient mixture to the patient as appropriate.

Sterile Water for Irrigation USP is utilized for a variety of clinical indications. Because of its low refractive index (1.3325), water provides excellent visibility during endoscopic urological procedures. It is also utilized as a pharmaceutic aid, as well as in the preparation of enteral nutrient products.

Water is hypotonic and will cause hemolysis and will be readily absorbed by the tissues during surgical procedures; therefore, its use under such conditions is not recommended.
