loop diuretics may be administered with blood to prevent symptoms of fluid volume excess in clients who are not volume depleted.

Whole blood may cause circulatory overload.

Packed RBCs will increase the oncotic pressure and pull fluid into the intravascular space

My question - are loop diuretics given with packed RBCs?
