IVP Administration Rates

We have a book in each room that has all the common gtts, there starting rate and max rate. Many are weight based so a basic starting point varies. Check and see if your unit has something similar.

I have an app on my phone called IV drips and it has basic information, that might help give you a reference point both you will have to check your policy. Many vary on starting doses and max doses. Sorry, I hit send before I finished.

Here are a few I found IVpush resources

Medscape. It's a website and you can also use it as an app on your phone. It's awesome. I used it in nursing school as another reference. It has drug uses, along with IVP/IM administration, IV compatibilities, contraindications, dosages, and more. Very useful and informative. Great reference.
