  • Publication number: 20250099663
    Abstract: A system for manufacturing parenteral solutions includes a drug dosage module and a mixing module. The drug dosage module includes a source of one or more parenteral drug solutes, and one or more metering devices configured to discharge a metered dosage of each of the parenteral drug solutes. The mixing module includes a container configured to receive water-for-injection (WFI) and the parenteral drug solutes discharged from the one or more metering devices, and a mixer configured to mix water-for-injection (WFI) and the parenteral drug solutes in the container to form a parenteral solution.
