Large Volume SQ Injection Speed

T.J. Martley's picture

Forums: 

Good morning,

Is anyone aware of or have established institutional standards for larger volume subcutaneous injection speed/rates?

I'm particularly interested in speed/rates for oncologic agents. For example, a newer agent like Rituxan Hycela has specific administration recommendations in the prescribing information (E.g., administer over 5-7 minute depending on the dose). Whereas older agents like azacitidine and bortezomib have no recommendations in the prescribing information.

Thank you for your help!

Hello,

I'm interested in obtaining information about other hospitals that use neostigmine subcutaneously for the indication of acute colonic pseudo--obstruction.

What administration instructions/monitoring parameters are utilized at your facility.

Thank you,

Matthew Beaulac, PharmD, MS
