Simulect Caution For Usage

Instructions for Use and Handling: To prepare the infusion/injection solution, add 5 mL of water for injection from the accompanying ampoule aseptically to the vial containing the Simulect powder. Shake the vial gently to dissolve the powder. Use the reconstituted, colourless, clear to opalescent solution as soon as possible, but it may be stored at 2-8°C for 24 hours or at room temperature for 4 hours. Discard the reconstituted solution if not used within 24 hours.
The reconstituted solution is isotonic and may be given as a bolus injection or diluted to a volume of 50 mL or greater with normal saline or dextrose 5% for infusion.
Since no data are available on the compatibility of Simulect with other intravenous substances, Simulect should not be mixed with other medications/substances and should always be given through a separate infusion line.
