Thanks for stopping by!!!!!!
I've been walking a tightrope all week, not realizing that I've been walking a tightrope all the while. Newsflash: It's the journey, not the destination ;-)
Click on the title above (Another tightrope? Okay!) to enjoy my 2012 Anthem. FYI, It's First Lady Michelle Obama's fave, too ;-)
Epidurals, as we call them, are a group IV medications that are prepared in inpatient pharmacies, often with a narcotic analgesic drug that are is injected into the epidural space of the spinal canal.
The purpose of administering a narcotic analgesic drug into the spinal canal is to reduce pain and supplement general and local anesthesia, such as during childbirth. Just so happens that Haloperidol, which is commonly administered with Fentanyl, has also been reported by FDA as available in limited supply; Fentanyl is still on the short list as well. Oh, and by the way, these drugs are usually diluted in a fluid such as sugar water (Dextrose in water) or salt water (Normal saline) before it ever leaves the IV room. Such fun work, if I must say so myself!
Interesting, huh? Yeah, I thought so, too. That's why I announce this stuff, in the first place ;-)
