Significance and Use4.1 Difficulties have occurred in the correct identification ofsyringes containing significantly different medications oncethey have been removed from their cartons. T

7、he objective ofthis specification is to facilitate identification of the drug, itsconcentration, volume, and total amount.4.2 Difficulties have also occurred in distinguishing be-tween syringes containing drugs ready for intravenous injec-tion and similar syringes containing solutions which must bed

8、iluted before use. An objective of this specification is tominimize the chance for such errors.5. Label Requirements5.1 Label copy shall comply with Specification D 4267 andshall include the information required by regulation and by themanufacturer. In addition the requirements of the followingsecti

9、ons shall apply.5.2 In syringes of the type shown in Fig. 1, 10-point orlarger type is preferred for the drug name and the amount ofdrug per millilitre, or total amount as appropriate. This typeshall satisfy the test for legibility in 7.1, but at a distance of 500mm (19.7 in.). This information shal

10、l be legible with minimalrotation of the immediate drug container.5.3 In syringes of the type in Fig. 2, where the immediatedrug container is fitted into the syringe barrel, the drug name,concentration, and total volume shall appear as close to theextreme right hand end of the drug containerthat is,

11、 theopposite end to the needleas possible, in bold type, in heightat least equal to one ninth of the external circumference of thecontainer up to a maximum of 10 mm.5.3.1 The opaque background of these two lines of text shallnot exceed one third of the circumference of the container.There shall be g

12、ood contrast between the type used for the drugname, concentration, and total volume, and either the drugcontainer or an added opaque label background sufficient toconform with Section 7. The name of the drug on the containershall be legible through the barrel during preparation and usesufficient to
