Store Sandoz ampicillin at controlled room temperature, 20°C to 25°C (68°F to 77°F). Protect from light. Discard any unused portion after the expiration date printed on the label. This ensures potency and safety.
Handling Procedures
Always follow aseptic techniques when preparing and administering ampicillin. Use appropriate personal protective equipment, including gloves and gowns. Prepare solutions immediately before use; do not store prepared solutions. Proper disposal of used materials is paramount. Check your local guidelines for appropriate disposal procedures.
Inspect the vial before use. Discard if the solution is cloudy, discolored, or contains particulate matter. Report any quality issues immediately to Sandoz or your local regulatory authority. Accurate and timely reporting helps maintain product quality and patient safety.
Compatibility
Consult the product information leaflet for compatibility information with other medications or intravenous fluids before mixing. Incompatible admixtures may lead to precipitation or degradation, reducing ampicillin’s effectiveness.
