Adverse reactions

Information about undesirable effects, reasonably associated with use of the drug, that may occur as part of the pharmacological action of the drug or may be unpredictable in its occurrence. Adverse reactions include those that occur with the drug, and if applicable, with drugs in the same pharmacologically active and chemically related class. There is considerable variation in the listing of adverse reactions. They may be categorized by organ system, by severity of reaction, by frequency, by toxicological mechanism, or by a combination of these.
6 ADVERSE REACTIONS Adverse reactions which may occur because of this solution, added drugs or the technique of reconstitution or administration include, but are not limited to, air embolization, febrile response, local tenderness, abscess, tissue necrosis or infection at the site of injection, venous thrombosis or phlebitis extending from the site of injection and extravasation. If an adverse reaction does occur, discontinue the infusion, evaluate the patient, institute appropriate therapeutic countermeasures, and if possible, retrieve and save the remainder of unused vehicle for examination if deemed necessary. • Reactions that may occur because of this solution, added drugs or the technique of reconstitution or administration include air embolization, febrile response, local tenderness, abscess, tissue necrosis or infection at the site of injection, venous thrombosis or phlebitis extending from the site of injection and extravasations ( 6 ).

SODIUM CHLORIDE Drug Interactions

Information about and practical guidance on preventing clinically significant drug/drug and drug/food interactions that may occur in people taking the drug.
7 DRUG INTERACTIONS Some drugs or injections may be incompatible when combined with 0.9% sodium chloride. Before Sodium Chloride Injection, USP, 0.9% is used as a vehicle for the administration of a drug, the drug product manufacturer’s instructions or other specific references should be checked for any possible incompatibility with sodium chloride. Consult with a pharmacist, if unsure of compatibility. • Some drugs or injections may be incompatible when combined with 0.9% sodium chloride. • Consult with a pharmacist, if unsure of compatibility ( 7 ).

Clinical pharmacology

Information about the clinical pharmacology and actions of the drug in humans.
12 CLINICAL PHARMACOLOGY Sodium chloride in water dissociates to provide sodium (Na+) and chloride (Cl-) ions. These ions are normal constituents of the body fluids (principally extracellular) and are essential for maintaining electrolyte balance. The small volume of fluid and amount of sodium chloride provided by Sodium Chloride Injection, USP, 0.9% when used only as an isotonic vehicle for parenteral injection of drugs or for flushing of indwelling access devices, is unlikely to exert a significant effect on fluid and electrolyte balance except possibly in neonates and very small infants.

Contraindications

Information about situations in which the drug product is contraindicated or should not be used because the risk of use clearly outweighs any possible benefit, including the type and nature of reactions that have been reported.

The syringe component of Sodium Chloride Injection, USP, 0.9% is manufactured with polypropylene and luer lock. The syringe is not made with natural rubber latex. The syringe is not made with DEHP. This product contains no preservative. The syringes require no vapor barrier to maintain the proper drug concentration. The empirical formula for sodium chloride is NaCl and the molecular weight is 58.44 g/mol. Supplied as single use syringes.

Dosage and administration

Information about the drug product’s dosage and administration recommendations, including starting dose, dose range, titration regimens, and any other clinically sigificant information that affects dosing recommendations.
2 DOSAGE & ADMINISTRATION • Volume of preparation to be used for diluting or dissolving any drug for injection is dependent on the vehicle concentration, dose and route of administration recommended by the drug manufacturer ( 2.1 ). 2.1 Recommended Dosage The volume of preparation to be used for diluting or dissolving any drug for injection is dependent on the vehicle concentration, dose and route of administration as recommended by the drug manufacturer. 2.2 Instruction for Administration Solution and fluid path are sterile and non-pyrogenic if the tip cap is in place, syringe is intact and there is no evidence of leakage. Use proper aseptic technique. Inspect plastic wrapping. Do not use if plastic wrapping is damaged or not intact. (Figure 1) Remove plastic packaging by tearing along perforation. (Figure 2) Do not use if, solution is discolored, cloudy, hazy, or contains a precipitate, or if the syringe is damaged. (Figure 3) With the tip cap of the syringe on, press the syringe forward to properly activate the syringe. Improper activation may difficult syringe use and/or may cause plunger rod separation. Never draw back rod because the product may become contaminated. (Figure 4) Remove tip cap. Hold the syringe unit upright and prime to expel any air bubble if present. (Figure 5) Syringe is now ready to use. Use aseptic techniques for diluting or dissolving drugs, mix thoroughly and use according to the drug manufacturer’s label instructions. Discard empty unit after use. Discard any unused portion. Do not reuse disposable syringes. 2.3 Preparation and Handling Precautions Before use check for any possible incompatibility with sodium chloride. Parenteral drug products should be inspected visually for particulate matter and discoloration prior to administration whenever solution and container permit. Do not administer unless solution is clear and seal is intact. Do not store reconstituted solution or drugs for injection unless otherwise directed by the manufacturer of the solute. Adding additives may be incompatible. Do not use if, solution is discolored, cloudy, hazy, or contains a precipitate, or if the syringe is damaged. Do not freeze. Exposure of pharmaceutical products to heat should be minimized. Avoid excessive heat. 2.2 Instruction for Administration Solution and fluid path are sterile and non-pyrogenic if the tip cap is in place, syringe is intact and there is no evidence of leakage. Use proper aseptic technique. Inspect plastic wrapping. Do not use if plastic wrapping is damaged or not intact. (Figure 1) Remove plastic packaging by tearing along perforation. (Figure 2) Do not use if, solution is discolored, cloudy, hazy, or contains a precipitate, or if the syringe is damaged.
