Bacteriostatic Water 10ml

Bacteriostatic water is a sterile solution containing 0.9% benzyl alcohol, which acts as a preservative. It's used primarily in medical settings to:

1. Reconstitute or dilute medications
2. Flush intravenous lines
3. Prepare injectable solutions

Delivery:
- Orders processed every day at 11am
- All orders sent on Royal Mail Tracked 24

Key features:

1. Sterile: Free from living microorganisms
2. Inhibits bacterial growth: Doesn't kill bacteria but prevents their multiplication
3. Longer shelf life: Can be used for multiple doses over time
4. Not for long-term storage: Typically used within 30 days of opening

Bacteriostatic water differs from standard sterile water in that it contains the preservative, allowing for multiple uses from a single vial. However, it's not suitable for all medications or patients, particularly neonates or those with benzyl alcohol sensitivities.
