Kabiven/Kabiven Peripheral Caution For Usage

Kabiven/Kabiven Peripheral should only be mixed and used if the solutions are clear and colorless or slightly yellow and if the emulsion is white and homogenous.
The contents of the 3 separate chambers have to be mixed before use. After breaking the seals, chemical and physical in-use stability of the mixed 3-chamber bag has been demonstrated for 24 hrs at 25°C.
Only medicinal or nutritional solutions for which compatibility has been documented may be added to Kabiven/Kabiven Peripheral. Additions should be made aseptically. From a microbiological point of view, the product should be used immediately when additions have been made. If not used immediately, the in-use storage time and conditions prior to use are the responsibility of the user and should normally not be longer than 24 hrs at 2-8°C. If storage cannot be avoided and provided that additions are made under controlled and validated aseptic conditions, the mixed emulsion may be stored up to 6 days at 2-8°C before being used. After removal from storage at 2-8°C, the admixture should be infused within 24 hrs.
