Hi all

I am new to this forum and the reason why i joined is because i wanted to know why skin testing is no longer being done before AB administration. i researched a bit and learned that this makes patients uncomfortable. and why are we no longer checking the blood pressure before giving furosemide? i am doing a bridging course and just find it hard to accept the change hehehehe...if someone can enlighten me a bit more would be great thanks...
