Propofol BUD for a syringe

What BUD does your facility follow for procedural areas when propofol is drawn into a syringe from a vial?
1. Immediate use rules: spike and use within 1 hour, complete within 6 hours?
2. Package insert (syringe administration should commence promptly and be completed within 12 hours after the vial has been opened).

Thank you,

Kelly
