PICC

Hello!!! Quick question for everyone! Can you push versed and Ativan through a PICC line?
Why do you think that you may or may not be able to? What is the origin of this question?

I'm asking personally. If I had a PICC could you push those particular meds

I guess I'm asking if there are meds that can't be pushed via PICC

I'm not saying you could or couldn't. I was just wondering

I'm a student but I do work in a hospital. Inserting a PICC is a possible treatment option for a personal illness and I was just curious. Trying to weigh the pros and cons

Yeah I understand that. It was just a question I came up with and I couldn't find a definitive answer on the internet so I thought what's the harm in asking. When I see my doctor again I will talk to him but I was just curious.

Good job asking, SionainnRN.
