Guest pac4hire Posted September 16, 2005 Share Posted September 16, 2005 im only stabing in the air at this one but rely on my endoscopy experience...Mg can also be used in endoscopy so i guess it could be used for the esophagus also Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Moderator EMEDPA Posted September 16, 2005 Moderator Share Posted September 16, 2005 is it benzo's? yup-great muscle relaxants. any im/iv preparation would probably do but I tend to use ativan as that is what is most available at my facility.....
