The solutions contain no bacteriostat, antimicrobial agent or added
buffer (except for pH adjustment) and
each is intended only for single-dose injection (after dilution). When
smaller doses are required,
discard the unused portion. The pH is 4.6 (4.0 to 8.0).
Potassium Chloride for Injection Concentrate, USP (appropriately
diluted) is a parenteral fluid and
electrolyte replenisher.
Potassium Chloride, USP is chemically designated KCl, a white granular
powder freely soluble in
water.
The semi-rigid material used for the plastic vials is fabricated from
a specially formulated polyolefin.
It is a copolymer of ethylene and propylene. The safety of the plastic
has been confirmed by tests in
animals according to USP biological standards for plastic containers.
The container requires no vapor
barrier to maintain the proper drug concentration.
_CLINICAL PHARMACOLOGY_
Potassium is the chief cation of body cells (160 mEq/liter of
intracellular water) and is concerned with
the maintenance of body fluid composition and electrolyte balance.
