B BRAUN L8502 STERILE WATER INJECTIONS 250mL Sterile Water, EXCEL®, 24/cs (56 cs/plt)
• Model: L8502
• Volume: 250 mL
• Case of 24
• 56 Cases/ Pallet
EXCEL & PAB, the only PVC-free, DEHP-free containers with a full range of basic IV solutions. EXCEL & PAB eliminate the risk of plasticizer toxicity, reduces the risk of sub-therapeutic dosing and facilitate inspection of admixtures.
The B. Braun Sterile Water for Injection USP in a 250 mL EXCEL® bag is designed primarily as a versatile compounding and diluent solution rather than a direct hydration product. Because its composition is essentially pure water without electrolytes or preservatives, it must be adjusted to isotonicity (by the addition of appropriate solutes) before being administered for hydration. The manufacturer emphasizes that it is “hypotonic and hemolytic” when injected as is—so clinical use must be preceded by proper compounding or admixture.
Material and packaging considerations are thoughtfully addressed in this product. The EXCEL® bag system offers a modern, flexible‑bag format rather than rigid containers, and is explicitly free from natural rubber latex, PVC and DEHP. This aligns with many institutional goals around reducing allergen and plasticizer exposure. The container’s design simplifies handling in infusion pharmacies, central supply, and compounding suites. Additionally, the clarity, sterility and predefined size support consistent workflow and inventory management.
From an operational standpoint, the 24‑units‑per‑case configuration supports hospital pharmacy stock management and allows for standardized inventory of a base diluent product. Because it’s a single‑use bag that requires additive or compounding to become patient‑administrable for hydration, it’s typically managed in pharmacy or sterile compounding settings rather than floor nursing adoption. Facilities using this product should ensure staff are trained on the required preparation steps (adding solutes, mixing, checking isotonicity) and understand its role as a component rather than a complete hydration solution. Overall, the L8502 provides a material‑safe, flexible diluent base that supports compounding workflows with clarity and reliable packaging.
