FEIBA Patient Information Booklet - Haemophilia Care

How should I store FEIBA?
FEIBA should be stored in a refrigerator between 2° and 8°C. It should not
be frozen.
Within the indicated shelf life, you can also store FEIBA at room temperature
(up to 25°C) for a period of 6 months or up to 2 years if it is in the
refrigerator. When storing FEIBA at room temperature it is important that
you write the new expiry date on the box. At the end of this period the
product must be used, discarded or returned to the Haemophilia Centre.
You must not return it to the fridge following storage at room temperature.
Keep the vials in the box in order to protect them from light.
Mix the FEIBA just before you are going to use it. The solution should be
used immediately. You must only use solutions that are clear and not cloudy
or containing any particles. If you are unsure, please contact your
Haemophilia Centre for advice.
How should I dispose of unused
solution and waste material?
When a home delivery service is used, they will normally take away unused
solution and waste material. Your haemophilia care team will show you
how to store these materials in the bins provided until it is removed by the
delivery team.
Any unused solution and waste material should be disposed of carefully
to avoid any risk of injury to others. All equipment used for the infusion
and its preparation should be disposed of directly into a sharps bin that can
be sealed when it is three quarters full. Your haemophilia care team will give
guidance on the safe storage and disposal of your infusion materials.
Normally when FEIBA is delivered by a home delivery service, you can
simply order replacement sharps bins from your coordinator and return
your sealed sharps bins by handing them to the delivery driver.
