Bacteriostatic Water

Bacteriostatic Water for Injection is sterile, non-pyrogenic water that contains 0.9% benzyl alcohol (9mg/mL) added as a bacteriostatic preservative.
This preparation of sterile water and benzyl alcohol (BnOH) allows repeated withdrawals to be made from a single 10mL plastic vial.
Once a vial of bacteriostatic water is open, the preservatives will prolong its life for up to 28 days. After this period, the vial should be discarded.
