Medipak offers the widest variety of UV protective and blocking bags available. All UVLI® Covers and Bags exceed United States Pharmacopeia standards. Our blinding bags are available in black and dark brown, and our UV protective bags are available in amber and green. Amber and green bags have the added benefit of slight transparency (about 10%), allowing labels and levels to be read without lifting the cover, while still masking color variations in IV fluid.
Additionally, Regular UVLI® Covers have a seal completely across one end while the slit-top UVLI® Covers have a 2.5-inch gap in the middle of the seal. This gap makes it easier to put UVLI® Covers on an IV hook, without the need to manually poke or cut a hole.
Some pharmaceutical companies and clinical research organizations cover the IV lines during clinical investigations to blind and protect the medication.
