INSTRUCTION FOR THE HEALTHCARE PROFESSIONAL
The following information is intended for medical or healthcare professionals only: (See also section 3)
Instructions for use
Before using TRACTOCILE, the solution should be examined to ensure it is clear and free from particles.
TRACTOCILE is given intravenously in three successive stages:
- The initial intravenous injection of 6.75 mg in 0.9 ml is slowly injected into a vein over one minute.
- A continuous infusion at a rate of 24 ml/hour is given for 3 hours.
- A continuous infusion at a rate of 8 ml/hour is given for up to 45 hours, or until the contractions of the uterus have subsided.
The total duration of the treatment should be no more than 48 hours. Further treatment cycles of TRACTOCILE can be used should contractions recur. It is recommended that no more than three retreatments should be used during a pregnancy.
Preparation of the intravenous infusion
The intravenous infusion is prepared by diluting TRACTOCILE 37.5 mg/5 ml, concentrate for solution for infusion in sodium chloride 9 mg/ml (0.9%) solution for injection, Ringer's lactate solution or 5% w/v glucose solution. This is done by removing 10 ml of solution from a 100 ml infusion bagand replacing it with 10 ml TRACTOCILE 37.5 mg/5 ml concentrate for solution for infusion from two 5 ml vials to obtain a concentration of 75 mg atosiban in 100 ml. If an infusion bag with a different volume is used, a proportional calculation should be made for the preparation.
TRACTOCILE should not be mixed with other medicinal products in the infusion bag.
