Precautions for Use of Sodium Hyaluronate

When using sodium hyaluronate, attention should be paid to its concentration, injection volume, contact with specific drugs, storage conditions, etc. to ensure its safe and effective use.

1. Balance with room temperature: Before use, sodium hyaluronate should be balanced with room temperature to ensure that it is used at normal temperature.

2. Injection volume control: Avoid injecting excessive sodium hyaluronate into the eye or other application sites to avoid adverse reactions or complications.

3. Prohibition for specific populations: For patients with aphakia and diabetes, it is forbidden to use a large amount of sodium hyaluronate during postoperative surgery.

4. Residual removal: At the end of the operation, the residual sodium hyaluronate should be removed by injection or suction to ensure the cleanliness of the surgical site.

5. Avoid contact with specific drugs: Sodium hyaluronate should not come into contact with drugs containing benzalkonium chloride to avoid turbidity or affect the effect of use.

6. Concentration selection: Generally, 0.1% sodium hyaluronate is used, and 0.3% concentration is used for severe diseases and when the effect is not obvious.

7. Preparation before use: Before use, remove contact lenses to ensure that there is no foreign matter in the eyes. At the same time, if the liquid is turbid, it is strictly forbidden to use.

8. Storage conditions: Sodium hyaluronate should be stored in a dark, dry and cool place, and sealed. It is strictly forbidden to mix or transport it with toxic and harmful items. In addition, sodium hyaluronate is easy to lose its vitality after being heated, damp, and exposed to light, so its shelf life is short, and the storage and transportation conditions are relatively harsh.
