What is your facility's policy on drawing peaks and troughs? Do you draw with each dose, every other dose, every third dose, etc?

Just wondering.:)

As ordered by the physician.

Before the third dose. Then we decide if we need to change, and if so, then we reorder the trough again at the 3rd dose.

When in doubt, check with the lab, check your policies and procedure manual and/or call the physician to clarify the order.

30 minutes before 3rd dose at our policy;
