American Academy of Pediatrics
(AAP) issues an erratum about epinephrine information in 2003
Red Book
The American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP) recently issued
an erratum concerning Table 1.11 of the "2003 Red Book,"
soft cover and hard cover editions. The table, titled "Epinephrine
in the Treatment of Anaphylaxis," appears on page 64.
Previously the third sentence under the heading "Intravenous
administration" read "1 mg/kg or 0.01 mL/kg."
It now reads "0.01 mg/kg or 0.1 mL/kg."
