IV Hydroxyzine

I am curious how many are utilizing IV hydroxyzine at your institution? If yes, please answer:

A) Do you require a central line for administration?

B) Do you have any restrictions around its use?

C) Do you dilute it?

B) How long do you infuse it over?

Does anyone have data to support use of IV administration?
