Ampoules are small containers with saline solution, heparin, calcium chloride and other drugs for injection. The name comes from Latin, lat. ampullae - tube or tube.
First of all, I would like to note that the ampoules are intended for intravenous administration. They are injected into a vein somewhat more slowly than other drugs. The veins must be filled with blood so that the medicine can easily reach the desired area of the body. This process takes time and therefore needs to be injected slowly. The permeability of ampoules will be low if these conditions are violated. Important to remember! Ampoules cannot be used as injections for external use and do not inject in the same place twice in a row. Also, injections should only be performed by specially trained personnel because it is a very dangerous procedure.
Advantages of use: * The obvious advantage is repeated use. * Quick preparation of the medicine, since the contents are diluted immediately before administration. * Maximum effectiveness with minimal risk of side effects. They can also be used for a longer period of time than tablets and solutions.
