Subject: norepinephrine (LEVOPHED) 8 mg in NS 250 mL - SHIPMENT DELAY
 
Due to a delayed shipment, we have depleted our supply of norepinephrine (LEVOPHED) 8 mg in NS 250 mL PREMIXED infusion on our carousel at HH Main. We do not expect to receive another shipment until next week. The bags are still loaded in pyxis machines on the nursing units, however, once our pyxis supply is exhausted nursing will need to med request and PSP will prepare the drip. At this time, we do not plan to load the refrigerated PSP made product in pyxis. 

Hopefully, our shipment will come in early next week and this change in products will be short-lived.
