Adult Human User Safety while handling Animalgesics for Mice & Rats in the laboratory:

Two trained staff for administration: Animalgesics for Mice & Rats should only be handled and administered by laboratory staff trained in the handling of potent opioids. To prevent human adverse reactions or abuse, at least 2 trained administrators should be present during injection of Animalgesics for Mice & Rats.

Protective covering: To prevent direct contact of Animalgesics for Mice & Rats with human skin or mucous membranes when handling the suspension, protective clothing is recommended.

Mucous membrane or eye contact during administration: Direct contact of Animalgesics for Mice & Rats with the eyes, oral or other mucous membranes of humans could result in absorption of buprenorphine and the potential for adverse reactions. If accidental eye, oral or other mucous membrane contact is made during administration, flush the area with water and contact a physician.

Skin contact during administration: If human skin is accidentally exposed to Animalgesics for Mice & Rats, wash the exposed area with soap and water and contact a physician. Accidental exposure could result in absorption of buprenorphine and the potential for adverse reactions.

Drug Abuse, Addiction, and Diversion of Opioids:

Controlled Substance: Animalgesics for Mice & Rats contains buprenorphine, a mu opioid partial agonist and Schedule III controlled substance with an abuse potential similar to other Schedule III opioids. Animalgesics for Mice & Rats can be abused and is subject to misuse, abuse, addiction, and criminal diversion. Animalgesics for Mice & Rats should be handled appropriately to minimize the risk of diversion, including restriction of access, the use of accounting procedures, and proper disposal methods, as appropriate to the laboratory setting and as required by law.

Abuse: Abuse of Animalgesics for Mice & Rats poses a hazard of overdose and death. This risk is increased with concurrent abuse of alcohol and other substances including other opioids and benzodiazepines. Buprenorphine has been diverted for non-medical use into illicit channels of distribution. All people handling opioids require careful monitoring for signs of abuse. Drug abuse is the intentional non-therapeutic use of a prescription drug for its rewarding psychological or physiological effects. Abuse of opioids can occur in the absence of true addiction.

Storage and Discard: Animalgesics for Mice & Rats is a Class III opioid. Store in a locked, substantially constructed cabinet according to DEA and local controlled substance guidelines. Discard broached vials after 28 days. Any unused or expired vials must be destroyed by a DEA registered reverse distributor; for further information, call 1-855-406-7660.

Physician information: Animalgesics for Mice & Rats injectable suspension is a mu opioid partial agonist (1.3 mg buprenorphine/mL). In the case of an emergency, provide the physician with the package insert. Naloxone may not be effective in reversing respiratory depression produced by buprenorphine. The onset of naloxone effect may be delayed by 30 minutes or more. Doxapram hydrochloride has also been used as a respiratory stimulant.

    Shake the vial briefly before each use to ensure uniform suspension. If stored refrigerated bring to room temperature before use.

    Use aseptic technique to withdraw the dose in to a disposable 0.5 or 1.0 ml syringe. A 20 to 23 gauge needle should be used for injections due to the viscosity of the drug suspension.

    The dosage of Animalgesics for Mice & Rats is a single subcutaneous injection of 0.05 mL per 20 gram mouse (3.25 mg/kg body weight). Therapeutic drug concentrations are maintained for 72 hours after the initial dose. If needed, a single repeat dose may be administered 72 hours after the initial dose.

    Secure the mouse in a scruff-of-the-neck hold. Insert the needle into the dorsal subcutaneous space created by the scruff hold. Inject the entire dose into the dorsal subcutaneous space. An oily sheen may be observed in the dorsal fur of the mouse after injection due to leakage of the oil-based drug suspension from the injection site. The oily sheen may last for 4 to 5 days post-injection. Leakage from the injection site can be minimized by slowly injecting Animalgesics for Mice and Rats in to the subcutaneous space. The mouse can be returned to its cage immediately after receiving Animalgesics for Mice & Rats.

    Do not return any unused drug suspension from the syringe back into the vial.

    Once the vial is broached, Animalgesics for Mice & Rats can be stored at 15° to 25° C (59° – 77° F) or refrigerated for 28 days. DO NOT FREEZE.
