PATIENT INFORMATION

USING YOUR RAZADYNEtm DISPENSING-PIPETTE AND BOTTLE

Follow the directions below to use your RAZADYNEtm Dispensing-Pipette and bottle, unless your doctor gave you different directions.

IMPORTANT: Read these instructions before using RAZADYNEtm oral solution.

To open the bottle and use the pipette (plastic tube)

The bottle comes with a child-proof cap. Here is how to open it:

1. Push the plastic cap on the bottle down while turning the cap counter-clockwise (to the left) (Figure 1).

Remove the unscrewed cap.

2. Pull the pipette out of its case. The pipette is a tube that you use to measure your dose of RAZADYNEtm. Place the pipette fully into the bottle of RAZADYNEtm. (Figures 2a-2b)

3. While holding the bottom ring of the pipette, pull the pipette plunger up to the level that equals the dose prescribed by your doctor. Use the markings on the pipette to guide you. This will draw the medicine into the pipette. (Figures 3a-3b)

4. Be careful not to push the plunger in during this step. Hold the bottom ring of the pipette. Remove the entire pipette from the bottle. (Figures 4a-4b)

5. Empty all the medicine in the pipette into 3-4 ounces (100 mL) of any non-alcoholic drink. To do this, push the plunger all the way in. (Figures 5a-5b)

6. Stir the drink well (Figure 6). Drink all of the mixture right away.

7. Replace the plastic cap on the bottle by turning it clockwise (to the right). (Figure 7)

8. Rinse the empty pipette by inserting the open end of the pipette into a glass of water, pulling the plunger out, and pushing the plunger in to remove the water. (Figures 8a-8b)
