IVIG and NS (Normal Saline) compatability?
I have a question for those of you that get IVIG... WHen i started this almost 4 years ago they couldn't even flush my IV with NS, as it wasn't' compatible with IVIG.. I guess they have since said it was ok to flush with NS..
The nurses at the infusion center mentioned today, possibly running the IVIG with NS at the same time to maybe allow my rate to be increased- does anyone do this? What happens when IVIG and NS mix? Does it make it inactive, clot ?? just curious.. I'd love to have my rate go above 100.. but don't want to mess anything up!!
THanks so much! I hope everyone is doing ok!
