German term or phrase: Injektionslösung N3

Anyone know what the N3 stands for or if I need to translate/include it for a UK context?
It's a translation of an intravenous injection solution of ketamine.

The whole sentence is "10 ampullen mit je 5 ml Injektionslösung N3"= "10 ampoules
each containing 5ml injectable solution N3"

Thanks!

Reference

Reference information:
The N1,2,3... reimbursement code only applies in Germany. I would leave it out.

http://ec.europa.eu/health/files/eudralex/vol-2/c/bluebox_02...

Reimbursement
A bar code must appear on the label. This is the Pharmazentralnummer. It is a 7 digit
number, which is printed in figures and as a bar code (code 39). The reimbursement
conditions are required on the label:
• “N1” for the small pack size
• “N2” for the medium pack size
• “N3” for the large pack size
• “Klinikpackung” for the hospital packsize
􀂃 “der Grüne Punkt”, or other recycling symbol
The reimbursement conditions N1, N2 etc are not relevant for products sold directly to
hospital units.
