Instructions for use: (see pictures below)
Once constituted, VFEND oral suspension should only be administered using the oral syringe supplied with each pack. Refer to the below-mentioned for more detailed instructions for use.

• Shake the closed bottle of constituted suspension for approximately 10 seconds before each use. Remove the cap.
• While the bottle is upright, on a flat surface, insert the tip of the oral syringe into the adaptor.
• Turn the bottle upside down while holding the oral syringe in place. Slowly pull back the plunger of the oral syringe to the graduation mark that marks the dose for you. To measure the dose accurately, the top edge of the black ring should be lined up with the graduate mark on the oral syringe.
• If large bubbles can be seen, slowly push the plunger back into the syringe. This will force the medicine back into the bottle. Repeat step 3 again.
• Turn the bottle back upright with the oral syringe still in place. Remove the oral syringe fromthe bottle.
• Put the tip of the oral syringe into the mouth. Point the tip of the oral syringe towards the inside of the cheek. SLOWLY push down the plunger of the oral syringe. Do not squirt the medicine out quickly.
• Replace the cap on the bottle, leaving the bottle adaptor in place. Wash the oral syringe as instructed below.

     

The syringe should be washed after each dose. Pull the plunger out of the syringe and wash both parts in warm soapy water. Then rinse with water. Dry the two parts. Push the plunger back into the syringe. Keep it in a clean safe place with the medicine.
