Hi,
I'm wondering if anyone has some general guidelines for pushing IV meds. I have asked around on my unit and I am getting some pretty vague answers. I realize that times may differ for different meds but does anyone have some rules of thumb they use? Some meds I push regularly are lasix, soumedrol, vasotec, dilaudid. I am mostly concerned with the PRN BP meds.
Also, do you always dilute w/ NS? Thanks!
