Subject: Poison Control protocol/medications for drug/alcohol overdose
I have a dictation that is cuttting out badly. Is anyone familiar with the emergency room procedure for drug/alcohol overdose. The RN starts out saying activated charocoal was used followed by oral - all I can catch is that the medication ends in cystine or IV fedalcystine? Any ideas?
