Yes, the three meds are all supposed to be given by Sub Q, that's the indications. I've been researching it a bit, and I know that Hyoscine is not really an option. But I'm torn between whether morph, or Midaz is the best option.....and why it would be the best option.

I have been given a scenario, and I have to make a choice of which medication I would give, and why: You have a palliative patient who is in the end stages, and he is quite restless and agitated. If you are given the choice of three PRN meds, which would you give, and why: 1. Morphine 5mg s/c 2. Midazolam 5mg s/c 3. Hyoscine 0.4mg s/c Would someone be kind enough to enlighten me on this. I'm only new to all these meds!! Sorry.......

Yes, I agree, pts. who are suicidal will take extreme measures sometimes to do their deed. Keep ur eyes open and ur wits about when nursing them. Cheers!
