IV Solutions

	niCARdipine 20mg/NS 200mL
		200 mL, IV, STAT, Start: T;N, Duration: 1 Dose(s)/Time(s), Increment Increase: 2.5 mg/hr, Increment Decrease: 2.5 mg/hr, Increment Freq: 5 min(s), Max Dose: 15 mg/hr
			Comment: Begin to taper off nicardipine 1 hour after initiation of oral anti-hypertensive therapy. Reduce by 2.5mg/hr every 15 minutes.   If the dose has been titrated twice within the specified timeframe and goal parameter is not achieved, the titration dose can be doubled until the ordered parameter is achieved or maximum dose is reached.  IV may be re-initiated after weaning within 12hours, re-initiate at the last dosing rate that maintained the Goal parameter SBP <220mmHg, DBP <120 mmHG for ischemic stroke unless administering thrombolytic or candidate for thrombolytic or hemorrhagic stroke. Discontinue order after 12hr if patient does not require IV re-initiation.
