Product Overview

Bacteriostatic Water is a sterile aqueous solution containing a bacteriostatic preservative, commonly benzyl alcohol. It is used in specific clinical settings as a diluent for certain medications when permitted by the medication’s manufacturer instructions.

The preservative helps inhibit bacterial growth in the solution after initial entry into the vial. However, bacteriostatic water is not a substitute for proper aseptic handling, and it is not suitable for every medication or application.
