Abstract

This document is a comment on a review article about norepinephrine, specifically addressing two topics: norepinephrine dose reporting and norepinephrine compounding. The comment highlights the need for international uniformity in reporting norepinephrine doses to avoid confusion and misinterpretation. It also discusses the compounding of norepinephrine solutions and the need to discard them after 24 hours due to the risk of compound loss. The authors emphasize that norepinephrine dose alone should not be the sole marker for decision-making in critically ill patients, and call for uniform reporting to facilitate future international studies.
