Contraindication Notes:
Glycine Irrigation Solution is not for injection in any route. It is contraindicated in patients with anuria.
Glycine irrigation solution contains glycine which is an amino acid and a non-electrolyte. It is therefore non-conductive and suitable for irrigation purpose. Glycine Irrigation Solution minimizes the risk of intravascular haemolysis which can occur from absorption of plain water. Glycine Irrigation Solution is rapidly degraded in the liver by glycine oxidase.
Additives may be incompatible. When introducing additives, use aseptic technique, mix thoroughly and do not store.
Large intravenous doses of glycine are known to cause nausea and salivation. Other consequences of systemic absorption of glycine include electrolyte loss, diuresis, edaema, thirst, dehydration, cardiovascular and pulmonary disorders.
Patients with cardiovascular disease should be evaluated after transurethral resection of prostate using glycine. Care should be exercised if the liver or kidney is impaired. Aseptic technique is essential while using glycine. Unused portion should be discarded. Do not use if the bottle is leaking, solution is cloudy, contains particles or after expiry date.
