Oral liquid volumes
In preparing for further work on the ENFit feeding tube connector situation described in our April 9, 2015 issue (http://www.ismp.org/newsletters/acutecare/showarticle.aspx?id=105), I am trying to put together a list of oral liquid medication doses where the volume is 2 mL or less. I am mainly interested in doses used for neonates but also would appreciate doses for infants and children and even adults. We would really appreciate it if you or your pharmacy technicians could help us with a list.
Thanks very much!
Mike Cohen
