Sat, 25 Oct 2025 22:13:49 +0000

Bacteriostatic Water 30ml is a specialized sterile water solution containing 0.9% benzyl alcohol as a preservative. It is not intended for direct intravenous injection but serves as a critical diluent for reconstituting or dissolving medications, peptides, and hormones that are supplied in a powdered or lyophilized (freeze-dried) form. The inclusion of benzyl alcohol is what differentiates it from sterile water for injection, as it inhibits the growth of bacteria within the solution for up to 28 days after the vial is first punctured.
