just a quick question for some of the residents on here
when you're on float, and you get a call for phenergan for nausea, are there any contraindications? (if the guy's vitals are stable and he looks comfortable)
just looking it up online i found the listed contraindications (liver dysfunction, BPH, angle closure glaucoma, etoh).
are these clinically accepted contraindications? ie. what would make you jump straight to zofran? that seems like it would be contraindicated in impaired hepatic function as well
i have my first night float coming up and trying to avoid over/underthinking everything (although i might have already lost that battle)
