IV meds for Labor, what do you use?

Published

Just curious to see what everyone else uses. We used to have demerol but we can't get it anymore, now we have stadol and nubaine(nalbuphine) I've heard of some places using fentanyl, and I have used that a few times.........WHat's your opinion and what do you like best?

Specializes in NICU, PICU, PACU.

At our hospital the use mostly Demerol. In the NICU, we hate when they give Nubain...it seems that the mom goes complete quickly and we end up with the baby because it is depressed!
