Lidocaine as a diluent for IM Ceftriaxone Injections in Pediatric Patients

Hello!

Does your organization have an age or weight limit for which you would NOT reconstitute IM ceftriaxone with lidocaine?

If you have restrictions in place, are they the same in both the inpatient and outpatient/ambulatory settings? How do you enforce any established practices (policy, pharmacy, CPOE, etc.)?

Any commentary or experience would be much appreciated! Thanks in advance!
