PONV- use of decadron and zofran

Published

Hi All,

Haven't posted in awhile-started clinicals in January...Sorry

Have a question- What is the rationale behind using decadron with zofran in PONV. The info I found was limited and not very helpful. It appears that the MOA of decadron in this instance is unknown??? Is that correct? Any other resources out there on this would be greatly appreciated ( or just a "point" in the right direction). Also, if you practice this method-what doses have you used?

Thanks to all!

Jamie

scopolamine is great too: 100mcq subcutaneous or 40mcg IM does the trick too
