**DOSAGE AND ADMINISTRATION** Important Administration Instructions - Lactated Ringer’s Injection, USP is intended for intravenous administration using sterile equipment. - Do not connect flexible plastic containers in series in order to avoid air embolism due to possible residual air contained in the primary container. - Set the vent to the closed position on a vented intravenous administration set to prevent air embolism. - Use a dedicated line without any connections to avoid air embolism. - Do not pressurize intravenous solutions contained in flexible plastic containers to increase flow rates in order to avoid air embolism due to incomplete evacuation of residual air in the container. - Prior to infusion, visually inspect the solution for particulate matter and discoloration. The solution should be clear and there should be no precipitates. Do not administer unless solution is clear, and container is undamaged. - Do not administer Lactated Ringer’s Injection, USP simultaneously with citrate anticoagulated/preserved blood through the same administration set because of the likelihood of coagulation precipitated by the calcium content of Lactated Ringer’s Injection, USP. Dosing Information The choice of product, dosage, volume, rate, and duration of administration is dependent upon the age, weight and clinical condition of the patient and concomitant therapy, and administration should be determined by a physician experienced in intravenous fluid therapy. Introduction of Additives Additives may be incompatible. Evaluate all additions to the plastic container for compatibility and stability of the resulting preparation. Consult with a pharmacist, if available. Ceftriaxone is known to be incompatible with Lactated Ringer’s Injection, USP due to precipitate formation. Ceftriaxone must not be mixed with Lactated Ringer’s Injection, USP. If, in the informed judgment of the physician, it is deemed advisable to introduce additives, use aseptic technique. Mix thoroughly when additives have been introduced. After addition, if there is a discoloration and/or the appearance of precipitates, insoluble complexes or crystals, do not use. Do not store solutions containing additives. Use content immediately after opening the container. Discard any unused portion.
