@ronneee Mine is labeled “sterile and pyrogenic”. I was required to get it through the specialty pharmacy at the hospital. They also manage my Brinsupri. Jeanne

@ronneee Hi, where did you read our saline is supposed to be pyrogenic? And what is the reason? My saline says NON-pyrogenic so I got curious about what that means and looked it up. Pyrogenic means it can cause fever, that is it has substances that trigger a fever and are considered contaminants in a medical context. It looks like anything going into the body is supposed to be NON-pyrogenic.
