Does iv phenobarbital for alcohol withdrawal require admission?
Flag a comment
I have had success with phenobarbital monotherapy treatment for alcohol withdrawal, generally following the guidelines from pulmcrit.org
I am curious to hear from others who use this medication; do you discharge them home or does phenobarbital usage mandate admission?

Do we have any PPOs provincially using phenobarb?
