Re: Brevibloc 250mg/ml discontinued

No generics in that strength... but they'll still have the 100mg/10ml available.

yea here we only use the vials and the premade IV so it should not inpact us that badly.

The only way it was going to impact us was if double strength was ordered for a patient. Baxter makes a double strength premixed bag as well as regular strength in a bag. It's much safer to use the premade bags.

It is a good thing that the amps where removed. Especially since there is a premade available. Now just watch for the shortage to start with the pre-made since that is the only way to get that concentration. Mark my words.
