药物信息为CIMETIDINEin 0.9% Sodium Chloride Injection, USP (HOSPIRA, INC.): DESCRIPTION

Cimetidine in 0.9% Sodium Chloride Injection, USP is a sterile, nonpyrogenic solution of cimetidine hydrochloride in 0.9% sodium chloride injection. It is administered by the intravenous route. Each mL contains cimetidine HCl equivalent to 6 mg cimetidine and sodium chloride 9 mg in water for injection. The osmolar concentration is 356 mOsmol/L (calc.); pH is 6.0 (5.0 to 7.0). May contain hydrochloric acid and/or sodium hydroxide for pH adjustment. The solution contains no bacteriostat, antimicrobial agent or added buffer and is intended only for use as a single-dose administration. When smaller doses are required, the unused portion should be discarded.

Cimetidine hydrochloride is a histamine H₂-receptor antagonist. Chemically it is N"-cyano-N-methyl-N'-[2-[[(5-methyl-1H-imidazol-4-yl) methyl]thio]-ethyl]-guanidine.

The molecular formula for cimetidine hydrochloride is C₁₀H₁₆N₆S•HCl and the molecular weight is 288.80. The structural formula of cimetidine hydrochloride is:

Cimetidine Hydrochloride

Cimetidine contains an imidazole ring, and is chemically related to histamine.

Cimetidine hydrochloride has a bitter taste and characteristic odor.

Sodium Chloride, USP is chemically designated NaCI, a white crystalline compound freely soluble in water.

Water for Injection, USP is chemically designated H₂O.

The flexible plastic container is fabricated from a specially formulated polyvinylchloride. Water can permeate from inside the container into the overwrap but not in amounts sufficient to affect the solution significantly. Solutions in contact with the plastic container may leach out certain chemical components from the plastic in very small amounts; however, biological testing was supportive of the safety of the plastic container materials. Exposure to temperatures above 25°C/77°F during transport and storage will lead to minor losses in moisture content. Higher temperatures lead to greater losses. It is unlikely that these minor losses will lead to clinically significant changes within the expiration period.
