Greetings,

How many sites have approved this medication for use?

We approved the above medication for use in the cath lab. Since approval, we have struggled with ensuring that this medication is used properly in terms of giving Brilinta while patient is getting the infusion or start a med after the infusion is stopped. How are other sites dealing with this? We are an Epic facility and medication orders on a navigator tab.

Many thanks,
Carol Welch, Pharm.D., M.S.
