Naloxone Infusion stability

Does anyone have stability info for naloxone infusions at 40 mcg/mL? If you are using this concentration, what is your BUD?

We are updating our naloxone infusion concentration from the manufacturer recommended concentration of 4 mcg/mL to the ASHP Standardize 4 Safety recommended concentration of 40 mcg/mL but I cannot find any information for stability at this concentration.
