Hold Medications prior to Hemodialysis

I am interested in any current policies regarding the holding of scheduled medication doses prior to hemodialysis procedures. We are revising our current policy which is leading to medication errors. Anything that you are willing to share would be appreciated.

Thanks, Vic
