Differentiating between the two is on my skills checklist for tomorrow but I can't find any information about them. I have looked in my skills and fundamentals texts with no luck. I looked online and all i can find is that it is centralized intravenous additives.

Help please!!

Are you form the UK? I believe they are Centralized Intra-Venous Additives. But I have not heard of this acronym myself but I found this PreParation of Centralised intravenous additives (Civa)

or just look up IV meds and IV push meds.
