No LPNs can not give any IM injections.
Intramuscular injections are not something that you should attempt to learn without proper instruction and supervision from a qualified instructor. If there is a medical reason, your doctor may teach you how to preform injections on yourself or one of your dependents. It is not something to try after only reading about it.
IN ORDER TO give someone an injection, you must be a doctor, nurse practioner (R.N. with further education), an LPN (licenced practical nurse), or an R.N. (registered nurse). If you are a child or an adult with a particular need for injections (diabetes, cancer etc.) a nurse can instruct you how, and you can give them to yourself. ALSO, trained medical personnel, like an EMT in an ambulance can give injections and start I.V.'s.
