What is Syrex?

Sodium chloride is the chemical name for salt. Sodium chloride can reduce some types of bacteria.

Sodium chloride flush is used to clean out an intravenous (IV) catheter, which helps prevent blockage and removes any medicine left in the catheter area after you have received an IV infusion.

Sodium chloride may also be used for purposes not listed in this medication guide.

Warnings

Before using sodium chloride flush, tell your doctor if you are allergic to any drugs.

How should I use Syrex

Use Syrex (Injectable) exactly as directed on the label, or as prescribed by your doctor. Do not use in larger or smaller amounts or for longer than recommended.

Use exactly as prescribed by your doctor. Do not use in larger or smaller amounts or more often than recommended.

You will use sodium chloride flush each time you use your IV catheter. Follow your doctor's instructions about how many times per day to use the flush.

Before using the flush, check the solution container to make sure there are no leaks in it. Do not use the medication if it has changed colors or has particles in it. Call your doctor for a new prescription.

Call your doctor or tell your caregivers if your catheter, needle, or IV tubing becomes blocked or if the flush or IV medicine is not flowing normally.

Throw away used needles in a puncture-proof "sharps" disposal container (ask your pharmacist where to get one and how to throw it away). Keep this container out of the reach of children and pets.

Store sodium chloride at room temperature away from moisture and heat. Keep all of your catheter flush supplies in a clean dry place when not in use.
