This 1997 edition marks the twenty-
fourth year of publication of
Intrave-
nous Medications
.
Annual revisions meet the tremendous
need for clear, concise, complete, and
accurate information on newly released
and existing IV drugs. This has been a
huge year for new IV drug approvals
by the FDA. Sixteen new drugs are in-
cluded (two are available only in
Canada and the United Kingdom, and
one is a new formulation of an old
product [warfarin] with a newly ap-
proved FDA indication.) In addition,
there are many important updates,
such as changes in dose, additional
disease-specific doses, refinements in
dosing applications, new indications,
new drug interactions, additional pre-
cautions, and new information in anti-
dotes. In some of the monographs,
you’ll find new, helpful charts for dilu-
tion and/or rate of administration. In
the Appendix of this User’s Guide,
you’ll find a key to abbreviations. In the
“Introduction” section (found under
the menu item “Drugs”), the Important
IV Therapy Facts are grouped to help
identify the information you want
quickly.
Health care today is an intense envi-
ronment. The speed of change is over-
whelming, but the authors and
publisher of
Intravenous Medications
have a commitment to provide all
health professionals who have the re-
sponsibility to administer IV medica-
tions with complete, accurate, current
information in a clear, concise, acces-
sible, and reliable tool. Each specific
drug must be able to be interpreted for
a specific patient. All drugs currently
approved for intravenous use (with the
exception of opaque dyes used in radi-
ology, some general anesthetics used
only in OR, and a few rarely used
drugs [see Appendix B] are included.
In addition, all information has been
thoroughly revised to incorporate the
most current documented knowledge
available.
Intravenous Medications
is designed
for use in critical care areas, as the
nursing station, in the office, in public

health and home care settings, and by
students and the armed services. Per-
tinent information can be found in a
few seconds. Take advantage of its
availability and quickly review every in-
travenous medication before adminis-
tration.
The nurse is frequently placed in a vari-
ety of difficult situations. While the
physician verbally requests or writes
an order, the nurse must evaluate it for
appropriateness, prepare it, administer
it, and observe the effects. Intravenous
drugs are instantly absorbed into the
bloodstream, hopefully leading to a
prompt therapeutic action, but the risk
of an inappropriate reaction is a con-
stant threat that can easily become a
frightening reality. It will be the nurse
who must initiate emergency mea-
sures should adverse effects occur.
This is an awesome responsibility.
If, after reviewing the information in
In-
travenous Medications
, you have any
questions about any order you are
given, clarify it with the physician, con-
Preface
sult with the pharmacist, or consult
your supervisor. The circumstances
will determine whom you approach
first. If the physician thinks it is impera-
tive to carry out an order even though
you have unanswered questions or
concerns, never hesitate to request
that the physician administer the drug,
drug combination, or dose himself or
herself. In this era of constant change,
the physician should be very willing to
supply you, your supervisor, and/or
the pharmacist with current studies
documenting the validity and appropri-
ateness of orders.
All information presented in this prod-
uct is pertinent only to the intravenous
use of the drug and not necessarily to
intramuscular, subcutaneous, oral, or
other means of administration.
