Injectable Promethazine Alternatives

Hello,

Does anyone have and is willing to share a monograph/algorithm/comparator chart of all available anti-emetics and their efficacy/safety in various populations (oncology, cardiology, pediatrics, etc.). Additionally, does it address use of and alternatives for promethazine as a sedative? I think it would be beneficial if ISMP/MSOS/ASHP? published this information so each institution would not have to do this work independently.

Thanks!
Rosemary
