@rnnewgrads: GI Cocktails in the ER! 💊 A GI cocktail is a mix of medications we use to relieve severe abdominal pain and GI symptoms quickly. Here’s a breakdown of what’s in it and why: • Magnesium & Aluminum Hydroxide: These antacids help neutralize stomach acid, giving fast relief from heartburn. • Viscous Lidocaine: Numbs the esophagus and stomach lining to reduce pain. • Simethicone: Eases gas and bloating. • Hyoscyamine Sulfate: Relaxes stomach muscles to decrease cramping. • IV Pepcid: Blocks histamine to lower acid production and provide lasting relief. Together, this combo can make a huge difference for patients experiencing GI distress. Have you used a GI cocktail in your practice?
