Join ED clinical pharmacist Jimmy Pruitt and Dan McCollum as we discuss the reasons that the traditional "B52" cocktail of haloperidol, lorazepam, and diphenhydramine is badly in need of updating.
- Why this cocktail is slower than you think.
- Newer medications that are more effective.
- Smarter approaches to agitated patients.
- When ketamine should be used.
This podcast is being cross published with the "Pharm So Hard" podcast, an excellent podcast discussing many excellent clinical pharmacology topics.
