[quote=Anonymous]Fentanyl is frequently included in the drug mix for epidurals. Some of what the family is saying seems questionable, such as this: [quote]“Her mother asked what she was giving her and she (the nurse) said, ‘I gave her 100 milliliters of fentanyl ,’ ” said Mariah Borgna, a family member of De La Rosa. Borgna said that’s how the family found out the dosage and the name of the pain medication that was administered.[/quote] 100 milliliters is an insane about, no one would ever give anyone remotely that amount. A 2 milliliter (liquid) dose would typical contain only 50-100 MICROgrams of actual fentanyl. The whole story seems screwy. She's being given pain meds for labor pains, but she's about to be discharged? Huh? Then transferred back to a room after an emergency C to save the baby, covered in blood? I understand this family is grieving an din shock, but nothing about the story makes any sense.[/quote]
