Re: Is there a max dose of Levophed?

We had a pt with necrotising fasciitis, very sick. She was on norardrenaline, quad strenth i.e. 320mcgs per ml, running at 20mls per hour, plus dobutamine and vasopressin. We were doing continual cardiac output studies and titrating the drugs according to her response.
