“Drugs On The Run”: Transitional Pharmacology

In order to meet the standards set by Paramedic Refresher Courses, we are offering Transitional Pharmacy, a presentation looking at the medications that every Paramedic should be familiar with. Some of these medications have been around for awhile and others haven’t been used in EMS until recently. We will go over these medications and look at some new ways to utilizing them in your arsenal for good patient care.

The medications covered include Fentanyl, Phenergan, Magnesium Sulfate, Oxytocin, Amiodarone, Morphine, Nitrous Oxide, Ativan, Thiamine and Narcan.
