Fresenius Kabi USA, LLC
INTRAVENOUS
PRESCRIPTION DRUG
Mannitol Injection, USP is indicated for the following therapeutic uses: • The promotion of diuresis, in the prevention and/or treatment of the oliguric phase of acute renal failure before irreversible renal failure becomes established. • The reduction of intracranial pressure and treatment of cerebral edema by reducing brain mass. • The reduction of elevated intraocular pressure when it cannot be lowered by other means. • The promotion of urinary excretion of toxic substances. Mannitol solution, 2.5% is indicated as an irrigation solution in transurethral prostatic resection or other transurethral surgical procedures. • Well established anuria due to severe renal disease. • Severe pulmonary congestion or frank pulmonary edema. • Active intracranial bleeding except during craniotomy. • Severe dehydration. • Progressive renal damage or dysfunction after institution of mannitol therapy, including increasing oliguria and azotemia. • Progressive heart failure or pulmonary congestion after mannitol therapy
Mannitol Injection, USP, 25% Use only if solution is clear and seal intact and undamaged. Store at 20° to 25°C (68° to 77°F) [see USP Controlled Room Temperature]. Preservative Free. Discard unused portion.
Abbreviated New Drug Application
MANNITOL- MANNITOL INJECTION, SOLUTION FRESENIUS KABI USA, LLC ---------- MANNITOL INJECTION, USP Rx only 25% _For Intravenous Use and Urologic Irrigation_ DESCRIPTION Mannitol is a 6-carbon sugar alcohol and has the following structure: C H O 182.17 Mannitol occurs naturally in fruits and vegetables, and is metabolically inert in humans. Mannitol Injection, USP, 25%, an osmotic diuretic, is a sterile, nonpyrogenic solution of mannitol in Water for Injection. It is a supersaturated solution at room temperature. Each mL contains: Mannitol 250 mg; Water for Injection q.s. The osmolar concentration is 1372 mOsmol/L (calc.). It contains no antimicrobial agents. The pH of a 5% solution is between 4.5 and 7.0. CLINICAL PHARMACOLOGY Mannitol is an osmotic diuretic. After intravenous injection it is confined to the extracellular space, metabolized only slightly and excreted rapidly by the kidneys. Approximately 80% of a 100 g dose appears in the urine in three hours. Mannitol is freely filtered by the glomeruli with less than 10% tubular reabsorption. It is not secreted by tubular cells. It induces diuresis by elevating the osmolarity of the glomerular filtrate and thereby hinders tubular reabsorption of water. Urinary output of water and excretion of sodium and chloride are enhanced. Mannitol is poorly absorbed from the gastrointestinal tract. Mannitol injection is free of electrolytes and is used in urology as a nonhemolytic irrigant. The amount of mannitol absorbed intravascularly during transurethral prostatic surgery is variable and depends primarily on the extent of the surgery. Such mannitol is excreted by the kidneys and produces osmotic diuresis. 6 14 6 INDICATIONS AND USAGE FOR INTRAVENOUS INJECTION Mannitol Injection, USP is indicated for the following therapeutic uses: • The promotion of diuresis, in the prevention and/or treatment of the oliguric phase of acute renal failure before irreversible renal failure becomes established. • The reduction of intracranial pressure and treatment of cerebral edema by read_full_document
