Compatibility of intravenous fosaprepitant with intravenous 5-HT3 antagonists and corticosteroids
2013
Purpose
Fosaprepitant dimeglumine for injection is the water-soluble phosphorylated prodrug of the neurokinin-1 receptor antagonist aprepitant. Both agents are approved (in combination with a 5-HT3 antagonist and a corticosteroid) for prevention of chemotherapy-induced nausea and vomiting. Because fosaprepitant is likely to be combined and stored in the same intravenous (IV) bag with 5-HT3 antagonists and corticosteroids, the in vitro compatibility of fosaprepitant with these agents and other IV diluents was assessed.
