RxCarbon Pad provides the ability to adsorb and render liquid controlled substances non-divertible in all containers. RxCarbon Pad helps keep air and water discharges of pharmaceuticals from autoclaves from occurring. Regulated waste containers of all types will be required to manage a significant increase of liquid pharmaceutical waste with the sewering ban
RxCarbon Pad is an important upgrade to your current regulated containers of all sizes and types and follows the same guidelines for your facility for these containers. In short, no changes in disposal practices are suggested or required.
RxCarbon Pad will work with a reusable regulated waste container. The 3”x9” size will fit in any wall or counter size container and the 12”x12” will work in all floor or cart mounted containers. RxCarbon Pad should be placed in the bottom of the unused container when the container is placed in service.
RxCarbon Poly meets the standards set by ISO 9073-10 and BS EN 13795 low lint and low particulate matter for use in pharmacy clean room environment.
Even though RxCarbon Poly has the added benefit of deactivating hazardous drugs like oncology liquids, it costs about the same as the old-style chemo towels. The patent pending RxCarbon Poly is the only available surface protection with RP718 activated carbon to adsorb and deactivate hazardous drugs like oncology liquids. Barrier towels do nothing to
Warehouse storage shelving for hazardous drugs Pharmacy sterile and non-sterile compounding surfaces Medication transportation carts Medication room counters Infusion tables and surfaces for starting and discontinuing IVs Under patient IV access sites Any surface that there is a possibility for a small spill of a hazardous pharmaceutical
RxCarbon Poly is used to waste and sequester NIOSH hazardous drugs including chemotherapy. RxCarbon Poly meets the standards set by ISO 9073-10 and BS EN 13795 low lint and low particulate matter.
RP718 activated carbon is a proprietary activated carbon that adsorbs and permanently deactivates controlled narcotics and hazardous drugs like oncology liquids. RP718 has incredible adsorbing power. One teaspoonful of RP718 activated carbon has about the same total surface area as a football field.
Regulated waste containers are utilized by many healthcare practitioners to purposefully or inadvertently dispose of pharmaceutical waste. RxCarbon Pad eliminates the possibility of these pharmaceuticals being nefariously diverted. USP<800> has identified contamination risks of hazardous pharmaceuticals as a significant health threat. It is important to both absorb and adsorb which will chemically bind
