How long does bacteriostatic water last once it is used? Hospira recommends that once a vial of Bacteriostatic water is open the preservatives will prolong its life for up to 28 days. After 28 days the vial needs to be discarded. Other injectables without the bacteriostatic agent (single-dose vials) should be discarded after one single use.
Quote from lpnandloveit1 I have always been told that the manufacturers exp date was for sealed unopened vials. Jun 9, '05. All multi-dose vials are marked when opened, usually insulin and such have a 30 day expiration date from date opened, but they never lasted that long on any unit I worked. If there is a change in color, nature, or if nurse feels vial was unsafe they were tossed.
