text: Use of PVC (polyvinyl chloride) tubing in infusion sets may lead to loss of active ingredient due to adsorption of nitroglycerin to PVC tubing, therefore dosage is affected (see Dosage and Administration).
text: Use of PVC (polyvinyl chloride) tubing in infusion sets may lead to loss of active ingredient due to adsorption of nitroglycerin to PVC tubing, therefore dosage is affected (see DOSAGE AND ADMINISTRATION).
text: Use glass bottles and non-PVC (polyvinyl chloride) tubing to avoid adsorption of drug to delivery devices; use of PVC tubing in infusion sets may lead to loss of active ingredient due to adsorption of nitroglycerin to PVC tubing; dosage is affected; adsorption by PVC tubing is increased when tubing is long, flow rates are low, and nitroglycerin concentration of solution is high; delivered fraction of solution's original nitroglycerin content has been 20-60% in published studies; fraction varies with time during single infusion, and no simple correction factor can be used; if intravenous nitroglycerin is administered through non-adsorptive tubing, doses based upon published reports will generally be too high; some in-line intravenous filters also adsorb nitroglycerin and should be avoided
