Note: Since the publication of this article, pharmacy experts have noted that there is not evidence to support needing to administer I.V. antibiotics one at a time. One pharmacist notes: “I do not want to discourage the practice of giving two antibiotics at the same time because in several instances it may be ideal (sepsis, extended infusion). Separating antibiotics also does not help differentiate which antibiotic caused the reaction. For instance, if cefepime is I.V. pushed at 09:00 and vancomycin started at 09:30 but patient develops a rash at 10:00, you would not be able to definitively conclude which antibiotic caused the reaction.

It has more pronounced effects on β than on α adrenoceptors, although α effects prevail at high doses. Truth: The only time it’s acceptable not to label a syringe is if the medication is prepared at the bedside and administered right away. Otherwise, syringes should be labeled. That includes when preparing more than one medication at the bedside and when preparing any medication away from the bedside. The reason for these recommendations is that nurses often are interrupted during medication administration. If distracted even for a few moments, what was in the syringe and the dose may be forgotten.
