Drug Dilution

The Iloprost solution must be diluted with normal saline or 5% dextrose before administration. For reasons of sterility, the solution should be prepared freshly every day. Infuse by means of an infusion pump, usually via a peripheral vein ( although in some cases surgeons prefer to use a central catheter )
