{"adverse_reactions":["ADVERSE REACTIONS None known."],"clinical_pharmacology":["CLINICAL PHARMACOLOGY Sterile Water for Irrigation USP is utilized for a variety of clinical indications. Because of its low refractive index (1.3325), water provides excellent visibility during endoscopic urological procedures. It is also utilized as a pharmaceutic aid, as well as in the preparation of enteral nutrient products. Water is hypotonic and will cause hemolysis and will be readily absorbed by the tissues during surgical procedures; therefore, its use under such conditions is not recommended."],"contraindications":["CONTRAINDICATIONS Not for injection."],"description":["DESCRIPTION Sterile Water for Irrigation USP is a sterile, hypotonic, nonpyrogenic irrigating fluid or pharmaceutic aid (solvent) entirely composed of Sterile Water for Injection USP.
