How much Revonto should we stock?
MHAUS recommends stocking 36 vials of dantrolene sodium for injection.  Check with your accrediting body and/or local governments for additional information.

What is the shelf life of Revonto?
Revonto has a shelf life of 36 months from the date of manufacture. There is a short lag time between the manufacture date and your order date.

Why does Revonto have an enhanced reconstitution time? 
US WorldMeds has changed the manufacturing process which allows for an enhanced reconstitution time of 20 seconds or until the solution is clear.

How do we reconstitute Revonto?
Revonto should be reconstituted with sterile water for injection (without a bacteriostatic agent).  The amount of diluent required has not changed.  Please refer to the Preparation section of the prescribing information. 

Also, please see the article “Avoiding Errors in the Reconstitution of Dantrolene Sodium for Injection During Malignant Hyperthermia Episodes.”

What should we do with expired Revonto/dantrolene sodium for injection?
US WorldMeds is a large proponent for education.  US WorldMeds suggests, if your facility permits, that the expired dantrolene be used for a mock drill, in which your team can become familiar with reconstituting Revonto/dantrolene in a crisis situation.

Does US WorldMeds offer any educational materials?
US WorldMeds has partnered with the Nursing CE Portal to offer for a limited time a free online class entitled “Malignant Hyperthermia: Perioperative Crisis,” worth one contact hour.

Additional information can be found on our resources page and on the MHAUS website.

How do we store Revonto?
There has been no change to the storage requirements.  Store unreconstituted product at 20-25° C (68-77° F) [see USP Controlled Room Temperature] and avoid prolonged exposure to light.
