Do you have any contact information you could share with me? Thanks so much.

Are the ABHR supps for nausea? We use something similar, except we use haldol, benztropine, reglan and decadron. What does the 'A' stand for?

A is for Ativan, and yes, we use them for nausea and vomiting. We can get them with decadron added too.

Emergency Kits

Hi, we use Hospice Pharmacia. They also do things like MSIR in 1 mg gel paks, just open and apply. Also have Ativan gel, Haldol gel, etc. I think they may be out of Philadelphia. Also, I get a box of scopalamine patches, just to have. Don't keep them in the 'fridge, though.
