• Supplied in a VIAFLEX® flexible bag, each bag holds 2000 mL, and the package includes six bags per box

🔍 Key Details & Composition

• Pharmacy bulk package designed for aseptic preparation of parenteral admixtures. Not intended for direct IV infusion because it is hypotonic and may cause hemolysis if infused without proper dilution

• pH ranges from approximately 5.0–7.0 (typically ~5.5), with an osmolarity of 0 mOsmol/L

✅ Indications & Usage

⚠️ Warnings & Precautions
