Best Answer

no! it causes the cyclizine to precipiate out of solution and blocks lines either iv or subcut. this can cause unnecessary stress and anguish to the patient as lines are required more often etc, use water for injection instead or a low % dextrose solution.

if using a syringe driver water for injection MUST be used rather than saline otherwise your causing unnecessary distress to your patient as lines get needing changing more frequently.

hope that helps,
