  1. IV incompatibility error

    Pinkflower77 posted a topic in General Nursing
    I've been a nurse for 3 months now. I had a patient the other day receiving Lactated Ringers with 20 of potassium. They we're on several IV antibiotics. I didn't even think about IV compatibility and just secondary ran all antibiotics. They included clindamycin, zosyn and dabtomycin. At shift change the nurse asked about it and said zosyn was incompatible. I felt bad but didn't really think much about it at the time. Now I'm really freaking out! There wasn't any crystallization but my patient did have high creatinine and kidney issues! I've been freaking out and nervous that they won't be ok, or that this is a major med error. This is what I find so difficult about nursing. I feel like I should have reported it right away but I didn't even think about it. Any words of encouragement or advice would be welcome. Thanks.
