At this time, stock of dopamine 400 mg/250 mL infusions is sufficient to resume placing them in PEDIATRIC code trays.  The kits can be replaced by the premade infusion during routine refilling of these code trays.  Please note that HHM will continue to pick the pediatric dopamine infusion from the W&C carousel.  W&C will send a case to Madison.
