Bacteriostatic Water for Injection is a sterile, nonpyrogenic aqueous
solution containing water for injection and a small amount of benzyl alcohol
(0.9% as a preservative). It is commonly used in laboratory and compounding
settings as a diluent for reconstituting or diluting compatible substances
under controlled conditions.
What It Is
- Product type: Sterile bacteriostatic diluent
- Composition: Water for injection with 0.9% benzyl alcohol as preservative
- Fill volume: 5 mL per sealed vial
- Intended setting: Laboratory and compounding environments following
appropriate aseptic technique and SOPs
Key Features
Preserved Diluent
- Contains benzyl alcohol (0.9%) to inhibit bacterial growth
in multi-use laboratory scenarios. - Suitable as a diluent for compatible substances where a
preserved aqueous vehicle is desired. - Clear, colorless solution supplied in sealed vials.
Laboratory Handling
- Designed for use within established sterile technique workflows.
- Supports preparation of reconstituted solutions from lyophilized
materials as specified in lab protocols. - Use and beyond-use dating should follow internal laboratory SOPs
and applicable regulatory guidance.
