Caution For Usage
Incompatibilities: Tab: None.
Soln for IV infusion: Since the active substance of nimodipine (Nimotop) solution for infusion is absorbed by polyvinyl-chloride (PVC), only polyethylene (PE) infusion tubing may be used.
The active substance of nimodipine (Nimotop) solution for infusion is slightly light-sensitive such that its use in direct sunlight should be avoided. If direct exposure to sunlight is unavoidable during an infusion, black, brown, yellow or red glass syringes and connecting tubing should be used, or the infusion pump and the tubing be protected by opaque wrappings. However, no special protective measures need be taken for up to 10 h if nimodipine (Nimotop) solution for infusion is being given in diffuse daylight or in artificial light.
Instructions for use/handling: Tab: Do not use after expiration date.
Soln for IV infusion: Parenteral drug products should be inspected visually for particulate matter and color change prior to administration. Any residual solution should not be kept for later use.
