Ameritox Ordering Information

Starting Dec 12th, 2016, Ameritox orders for some clinics will now be available to order through Cerner.  All orders start with the words, “Ameritox”. This is to help simplify the order searching process.  The process will be similar to the way other orders are placed in the system today.  However, the Ameritox requisition number will be required and must be placed in the order for the order to transmit.  This is the same number that is being used on the paper requisition today. Furthermore, the clinics will need to continue to send a facesheet and medication list with each order.  This also should be the same process in place today.

 

The results will still flow into the flowsheet as they do today.

GI Prophylaxis in Pediatric Patients on Ketorolac (Toradol).

This alert will fire to anyone who places an order for ketorolac on inpatient patients under the age of 18 who do not have an active order for an H2 blocker or proton pump inhibitor on their order profile.  The ordering provider can choose to place an additional order for famotidine from the alert or just click OK without making a selection to bypass the alert.
