What are the top 5 medications YOU administer daily?

Published

I want to read about medications that are nornally given by nurses, what do you normally deal with on your floor? I'm hoping to see a common drug list, but who knows...

Thanks.

Abilify, risperdal, Thorazine, prilosec, and seroquel. I would guess are our top five. Adolescent long term psych unit.

In our hospital everyone gets Colace to prevent constipation, Lovenox to prevent DVT, ASA for cardiac prevention, Theragran for multivitamin. For pain : norco, morphine, and dilaudid. Another common one I see all the time is Metoprolol. And the insulins- Novolog and Lantus.
