phenergan

What are your hospital protocols on pushing phenergan IV?

    Aside from extravasation, pushing phenergan can cause hypotension. No bueno. Dilute it in 25mL or 50mL of NS and hang it on a pump as a secondary over 10-15 minutes. Granted, all of my patients have central lines so I'm not concerned with extravasation.

    Ah, but remember that even though a central line is in the biggest vein possible, this vein, the SVC can still breakdown and an extravasation or an infiltration is still possible.

    Dilute with 10 ml NS and slow push over 10 to 15 mins at my hospital.
