  3. Meds you hate to give....

    iLOVEbees replied to UM Review RN's topic in General Nursing

    10ml of NaHCO3 will dissolve the lansoprazole granules in about 60 seconds and works well. The Pharmacists also claim 30ml of apple juice will do the same thing, but we've tried and let it sit for 30...
