RxVerify commentary

  • Avro Gripewater is on the NAFDAC register with an active registration (A11-0250). A valid number alone does not prove a pack is genuine — counterfeiters copy real numbers, so also check the expiry date, seal and print quality.

Generated automatically from the NAFDAC register, WHO alerts and community data as of today. Not medical advice — always follow your doctor or pharmacist.

What Avro Gripewater is used for

From the official U.S. FDA label for sodium bicarbonate, the active ingredient registered with NAFDAC.

What it is used for

Elliotts B Solution is indicated as a diluent for the intrathecal administration of methotrexate sodium and cytarabine for the prevention or treatment of meningeal leukemia or lymphocytic lymphoma.

Possible side effects

Adverse reactions may occur with any given intrathecal injection due to the chemotherapy or the technique of intrathecal administration. (See product labeling for methotrexate sodium and cytarabine.) Preservative-free methotrexate sodium and cytarabine should be used to minimize adverse reactions due to preservatives. If an adverse reaction does occur, discontinue the administration, evaluate the patient, institute appropriate therapeutic countermeasures and, if possible, save the remainder of the unused solution(s) for examination.

None known.
