Bacteriostatic Water for Injection USP 30 mL is a sterile, nonpyrogenic aqueous preparation intended for use as a diluent or solvent for compatible injectable medicines that require dilution or reconstitution before administration. USP defines bacteriostatic water as Water for Injection that has been sterilized and packaged with one or more suitable antimicrobial agents.
The 30 mL presentation is commonly supplied as a multiple-dose vial. A commonly listed formulation contains 0.9% benzyl alcohol (9 mg/mL) as the bacteriostatic preservative. Product specifications can vary by manufacturer, so the actual product label and approved documentation should always be checked before use.

Important Safety Information
Bacteriostatic Water for Injection USP is for drug diluent use only. It should not be administered intravenously by itself. The labeling also warns that products containing benzyl alcohol are not for use in neonates. For neonatal medication preparation, preservative-free Sterile Water for Injection should be used when water is required.
The appropriate vehicle, dilution volume, route, and administration procedure must be determined from the instructions for the specific medication. Reconstituted preparations should also be inspected for unexpected particulate matter, precipitation, or discoloration before administration.
