Yes, the manufacturer states that this medication is NOT to be used intravenously. See below:
Neurobion ampoules must not be administered by intravenous injection.
Where did you find that. I looked all over and found only for regular multivits.
DzooBaby thanks,, I ask one pharmacist and he told me that it has a Lidocaine content that may cause harm to the heart if directly given IV. :)
I have never given multivits im or iv push. We always mixed them in 1000cc of iv fluid. I can't find anything specific to neurobion.
I actually mix it with nomal saline before giving it as IV push because I'm is very painful and creates a numbness afterwards. Is it okey like that, will it give harmful effect if indicated as I.M. ?
