Question

The steps required for reconstituting powdered medication for infusion are as follows: Gather all necessary supplies: medication vial, solvent vial, syringe, and needle. Clean the tops of both vials (medication and solvent) with an alcohol swab. Draw up the appropriate amount of solvent (in this case, 10 mL) into the syringe. Inject the solvent into the medication vial. Gently swirl the vial until the powder is completely dissolved. Do not shake the vial as this can create bubbles. Once the medication is fully dissolved, draw up the appropriate dose of medication into a new, sterile syringe for administration.
