Incompatibilities: No incompatibilities between Rixathon and polyvinyl chloride or polyethylene bags or infusion sets have been observed.
Special precautions for disposal and other handling: Rixathon is provided in sterile, preservative-free, non-pyrogenic, single use vials.
Aseptically withdraw the necessary amount of Rixathon and dilute to a calculated concentration of 1 to 4 mg/ml rituximab into an infusion bag containing sterile, pyrogen-free sodium chloride 9 mg/ml (0.9%) solution for injection or 5% D-Glucose in water. For mixing the solution, gently invert the bag in order to avoid foaming. Care must be taken to ensure the sterility of prepared solutions.
