The stability of remifentanil hydrochloride and propofol mixtures in polypropylene syringes and polyvinylchloride bags at 22 degrees-24 degrees C.

Abstract

Remifentanil and propofol mixtures may be prepared extemporaneously. This study demonstrated that such mixtures are stable for 0 to 36 h, depending on relative concentrations of the drugs and the storage container used. The most stable mixtures were stored in syringes and used large concentrations of the two drugs.
