Sodium Acetate Injection, USP is a sterile, nonpyrogenic, concentrated solution of sodium acetate in water for injection. The solution is administered after dilution by the intravenous route as an electrolyte replenisher. It must not be administered undiluted. Each mL of 2 mEq/mL product contains 164 mg of sodium acetate (anhydrous) which provides 2 mEq each of sodium (Na + ) and acetate (CH 3 COO - ). Each mL of 4 mEq/mL product contains 328 mg of sodium acetate (anhydrous) which provides 4 mEq each of sodium (Na + ) and acetate (CH 3 COO - ). The solution contains no bacteriostat, antimicrobial agent or added buffer. May contain acetic acid for pH adjustment; the pH is 6.5 (6.0 to 7.0). The osmolar concentration is 4 mOsmol/mL (calc.) in 2 mEq/mL product and 8 mOsmol/mL (calc.) in 4 mEq/mL product; specific gravity 1.081(2 mEq/mL) and 1.1511 (4 mEq/mL). The solution is intended as an alternative to sodium chloride to provide sodium ion (Na + ) for addition to large volume infusion fluids for intravenous use. Sodium Acetate, USP anhydrous is chemically designated CH 3 COONa, a hygroscopic powder very soluble in water. A Pharmacy Bulk Package is a container of a sterile preparation for parenteral use that contains many single doses. The contents are intended for use in a pharmacy admixture program and are restricted to the preparation of admixtures for intravenous infusion.
