Morphine and Phenergan (promethazine) are not typically recommended for simultaneous intramuscular (IM) injection due to potential compatibility issues and the risk of adverse reactions. Mixing these medications can lead to precipitation and reduced efficacy. It is generally advisable to administer them separately and monitor the patient for any adverse effects. Always consult a healthcare professional for specific guidance in clinical settings.
yes
No LPNs can not give any IM injections.

The max amount for IM injection is 2.0 ml for older children. The max amount for IM injections for younger children and children with a compromised immune system is 1.0 ml.
Subcutaneous (SC) injections are administered into the fatty tissue just beneath the skin, allowing for slower absorption of the medication. In contrast, intramuscular (IM) injections are delivered directly into a muscle, resulting in a quicker absorption due to the rich blood supply in muscle tissue. The choice between SC and IM injections often depends on the medication's formulation and desired effect. Additionally, SC injections typically use smaller needles and involve less discomfort than IM injections.
Yes, the Hamstring muscle is a common site for giving an IM injection to a canine. Be sure to watch of for the Sciatic nerve!

Usually, the vehicle used for a intramuscular drug contains oil or a "fatty liquid". The amount of liquid injected is generally bigger in an IM injection and the drug might also be more irritative. The nail used is generally bigger and longer. For these reasons, almost all IM injections are more painful than SC injections.
2ml for cats & 5ml for dogs... hopefully you were talking veterinary :)
