I am a drug pusher!
I went to Haiti, just a month after the devastating earthquake. I wish there was dilaudid there, nothing but morphine and fentanyl. And every morning I opened up the "ED," I was missing all of the ibuprofen and baby diapers! But a patient population that was not exposed to narcotics... a 2 mg dose of morphine was more than enough!
But now, here in the US, when a patient comes in with a chief complaint of pain... wherever... and they are allergic to Toradol, Ibuprofen, Compazine, Phenergan, Vicoden, Ultram, Fioricet, Acetaminophen, and Morphine... I raise my eyebrow. Seems Zofran is still a good drug!
No one is ever allergic to Percocet or dilaudid... seems "allergies" are related to what one does not want...
Whatever!
Waste my time, waste resources, get your fix...
There used to be a time when people came to the ED when they were dead or dying...
If you are dying, we'll save your life... if we have a bed available...
