  2. Open nextaro®

    Open nextaro<sup>®</sup>

    Open the nextaro® transfer device package by peeling off the lid.

    Leave the nextaro® device in the clear outer packaging and avoid touching the device to keep it clean.

  3. Attach nextaro® to water vial

    Attach nextaro<sup>®</sup> to water vial

    Hold the water vial firmly on a hard, level surface. With nextaro® still in the outer packaging, turn it upside down and push the blue part straight and firmly down on the water vial until it snaps into place.

    Do not twist while attaching.

    Note: nextaro® must be attached to the water vial first. Otherwise, there will be a loss of suction, and the water will not flow into the wilate® vial.

  4. Attach the wilate® vial

    The water will be drawn into the wilate® vial by the vacuum.

  5. Swirl the connected vials

  7. Continue swirling

    Continue swirling

    Without touching the connector, continue swirling the wilate® vial until the powder has fully dissolved. This process may take several minutes.

    The final solution is clear or slightly opalescent, colorless, or slightly yellow. Reconstituted product should be inspected visually for particulate matter.
