I use the powdered rocephin I am fortunate
to receive through Roche. I use NaCI 0.9% (saline) 100ML minibags to mix it with.

I have been getting the bags from Infuserve America at a cost of $1.50 per bag.

The price has now increased to $9.70 per bag!!!!! They will sell them to me at a discount of $5.00 per bag.

Does anyone know where to purchase them for less than $5.00 per bag???

Thanks
Cheryl

I get 1000mL bags of saline from infuserve and I believe I'm getting them for $3 each. They haven't informed me of a price increase. I'll have to ask about it.

Sorry I can't be more help but you've been a help to me!

Hubby orders 250ml bags of sterile water from Apothecure in Dallas, Texas Phone 1-800-969-6601 This is a compounding pharmacy. http://www.apothecure.com

You will need a prescription Cost is $36.00 +11.25 Shipping (UPS) = $47.25 for case of 24 bags -- Slightly under $2.00 each

This price is only good on full case of 24 bags. This should work with the IV Rocephin -- you could just empty out half the bag.
