The pH is approximately 7.0.

Clinical Pharmacology 

Balanced Salt Solution Sterile Irrigating Solution is an isotonic solution for use in irrigating tissues of the eyes.

Indications And Usage 

For use as an extraocular and intraocular irrigating solution during ocular surgical procedure involving perfusion of the eye with an expected maximum duration of less than 60 minutes.

Warnings 

  • NOT FOR INJECTION OR INTRAVENOUS INFUSION.
  • Do not use unless product is clear, seal is intact and container is undamaged.
  • Do not use if product is discolored or contains a precipitate.
  • SINGLE patient use only. The contents of this bottle should not be used in more than one patient.
  • The use of additives with this solution may cause corneal decompensation.
  • This solution contains no preservative, unused contents should be discarded.

Precautions 

Open under aseptic conditions only.

Studies suggest that intraocular irrigating solutions which are iso-osmotic with normal aqueous fluids should be used with caution in diabetic patients undergoing vitrectomy since intraoperative lens changes have been observed.

There have been reports of corneal clouding or edema following ocular surgery in which Balanced Salt Solution Sterile Irrigating Solution was used as an irrigating solution.

Adverse Reactions 

Irrigation or any other trauma may result in corneal swelling or bullous keratopathy.

Post-operative inflammatory reactions as well as incidents of corneal edema and corneal decompensation have been reported.

Dosage And Administration 

The irrigating solution should be used according to standard format for each surgical procedure. Note: Use an administration set with an air-inlet in the plastic spike since the bottle does not contain a separate airway tube. Follow directions of the particular administration set to be used. Remove the aluminum tab. Clean and disinfect the rubber stopper by using a sterile alcohol wipe. Insert the spike aseptically into the bottle through the target area of the rubber stopper. Allow the fluid to flow and remove air from the tubing before irrigation begins.

How Supplied 

Balanced Salt Solution Sterile Irrigating Solution is supplied in a glass bottle using a gray butyl stopper and aluminum closure with a tear tab.
