Dosing Nebulized Epinephrine

If racemic epinephrine is available and respiratory therapists are familiar with it, that's the simplest approach.  Some hospitals are eliminating 1 mg/ml epinephrine (1:1000) to avoid dosing errors, so that may not always be an option (4).  “Cardiac epinephrine” (0.1 mg/ml, 1:10,000) has the advantage that it's readily available in crash carts, so this always immediately available (just dump it in a nebulizer and give it, no mixing or dilution required).
