Subject: LORazepam and diazePAM injection restrictions **UPDATE 8/25/22**

 

We have received a large shipment of diazePAM injection.

Effective immediately, the "for seizure use only" restriction has been removed for diazePAM only. Routine verification of diazePAM injection can resume. 

LORazepam injection remains in short supply and is still restricted for the treatment of seizure activity. 

LORazepam drips are still available for ICU use.
