About XEOMIN
XEOMIN® Reconstitution and Storage
- Prior to injection, reconstitute each vial of XEOMIN® (incobotulinumtoxinA) with sterile, preservative-free 0.9% Sodium chloride Injection USP. Draw up an appropriate amount of 0.9% saline solution into a syringe (see Table).
- Clean the exposed portion of the rubber stopper of the vial with alcohol (70%) prior to insertion of the needle. Gently inject the saline solution into the vial. If the vacuum does not pull the solvent into the vial, then XEOMIN® (incobotulinumtoxinA) must be discarded.
- Gently mix XEOMIN® (incobotulinumtoxinA) with the saline by rotating the vial. Invert the vial containing the reconstituted XEOMIN 2 – 4 times to ensure all the XEOMIN is off the rubber stopper. Reconstituted XEOMIN® (incobotulinumtoxinA) is a clear, colorless solution free of particulate matter. XEOMIN® (incobotulinumtoxinA) should not be used if the reconstituted solution has a cloudy appearance or contains floccular or particulate matter.
