PRE-FILLED SYRINGE (PFS) - INSTRUCTIONS FOR USE AND HANDLING

The PFS is for single use only. After injection any unused product must be discarded.

Extraction of multiple doses from the pre-filled syringe may increase the risk of contamination and subsequent infection. Prior to administration visually inspect the solution for injection. Do not use the pre-filled syringe if particulates, cloudiness, discolouration are visible. Prior to usage, the unopened blister pack of EYLEA® 2mg may be stored at room temperature (25°C / 77°F) for up to 24 hours. After opening the blister pack, proceed under aseptic conditions. For the intravitreal injection, a 30 G x ½ inch injection needle should be used. When ready to administer EYLEA® 2mg, open the carton and remove the sterilized blister pack. Carefully peel open the blister pack ensuring the sterility of its contents. Keep the syringe in the sterile tray until you are ready for assembly.

TWIST OFF

SYRINGE CAP

Using aseptic technique, remove the syringe from the sterilized blister pack. To remove the syringe cap, hold the syringe in one hand while using your other hand to grasp the syringe cap with the thumb and forefinger.

Please note:

twist off (do not snap off) the syringe cap. To avoid compromising the sterility of the product, do not pull back on the plunger.

ATTACH

SYRINGE TIP

Using aseptic technique, firmly twist the injection needle onto the Luer-lock syringe tip.

CHECK FOR

BUBBLES

Holding the syringe with the needle pointing up, check the syringe for bubbles. If there are bubbles, gently tap the syringe with your finger until the bubbles rise to the top.

ELIMINATE

ANY BUBBLES

To eliminate all bubbles and to expel the excess drug, slowly depress the plunger to align the base of the plunger dome with the dosing line on the syringe.
