Gelofusine Veterinary 4 % w/v Solution for Infusion
Pharmaceutical precautions
Do not store above 25oC. Do not freeze. Keep out of reach of children.
Gelofusine is stable for three years and can be stored at room temperature. Only clear solution should be used: it contains no preservative, and any unused Gelofusine should be discarded once the seal has been opened.
Although water soluble drugs can be given in Gelofusine, experience is limited. If essential, they may be given through the giving set, close to the intravenous cannula. The small Calcium content of Gelofusine does not give rise to clotting in the giving set when citrated blood precedes or follows its administration.
Shelf life: For expiry date, please refer to the label on the container.
