INSTRUCTIONS FOR USE, HANDLING AND DISPOSAL
NeuroBloc is provided in vials for single use only.
The medicinal product is ready to use and no reconstitution is required. Do not shake.
To allow division of the total dose between several injections, NeuroBloc may be diluted with sodium chloride 9 mg/ml (0.9%) solution for injection (see section 4.2). Such dilutions with sodium chloride should be done in a syringe, pulling out the desired amount of Neurobloc into the syringe first, and then adding sodium chloride to the syringe. In non clinical experiments, NeuroBloc solution has been diluted up to 6-fold without any resulting change in potency. Once diluted, the medicinal product must be used immediately as the formulation does not contain a preservative.
Any unused solution, all vials of expired NeuroBloc and equipment used in the administration of the medicinal product should be carefully discarded as Medical Bioharzardous Waste in accordance with local requirements. Vials should be visually inspected prior to use. If the NeuroBloc solution is not clear and colourless/light yellow or if the vial appears damaged, the product should not be used, but discarded as Medical Biohazardous Waste in accordance with local requirements.
Decontaminate any spill with 10% caustic solution, or sodium hypochlorite (household chlorine bleach ?2 ml (0.5%): 1 litre water) solution. Wear waterproof gloves and soak up the liquid with an appropriate absorbent. Place the absorbed toxin in an autoclave bag, seal it and process as Medical Biohazardous Waste in accordance with local requirements.
Do not use after the expiration date stamped on the vial.
