Guest guest Posted December 20, 1999 Report Share Posted December 20, 1999 Hey, got a question for the list... How many of you are carrying Zantac for IV/IM use? I'm doing my paramedic rotations (finally!) and the service I'm precepting with (not my " home " service of Cypress Creek) carries Zantac for use at the bottom of their chest pain/indeterminate (no evidence of acute MI, etc.) protocol. I had occasion to give it to a patient Sunday (under guidance from my preceptor), and it *did* seem to have an effect. Later, we discussed the full use, reasoning, etc. for the drug (not just the " it's in the book " answer), and it makes a lot of sense to me. Anyone else using it? Got ideas, comments, etc.? Mike , EMT-I Cypress Creek EMS PS - This is my *new* address, I've unsubscribed from my old one. Just a heads up! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
