Bacteriostatic Water 0.9% Benzyl Alcohol 30ml- Hospira

Bacteriostatic Water is a sterile water solution formulated with a bacteriostatic agent, typically benzyl alcohol, which inhibits bacterial growth within the vial. This property allows it to maintain sterility and be used multiple times under controlled conditions.

One distinction often noted is between bacteriostatic water and sterile water. While sterile water is also free from bacteria and contaminants, it does not contain a bacteriostatic agent, meaning it is designed for single-use only and lacks preservative properties.
