Chart A4.1 Compatibility chart for two drugs in WFI
Note: This chart summarizes the compatibility information available for drug combinations in
WFI used for CSCI over 24h in palliative care units and in the literature. Further information
about each combination may be found at www.palliativedrugs.com on the Syringe Driver
Survey Database (SDSD)
Chart A4.1 footnotes
All drug concentration values (mg/mL) specified below are the final concentrations of each
drug in the syringe after mixing and dilution. For full reference details, see the literature.
a. alfentanil 0.24mg/mL + cyclizine 8.8mg/mL reported compatible (Dickman et al.
2005)
alfentanil 4.25mg/mL + cyclizine 7.5mg/mL reported incompatible (Dickman et al.
2005)
b. observational reports of incompatibility from miscellaneous sources
c. cyclizine 8.33mg/mL + dexamethasone sodium phosphate 0.33mg/mL reported
compatible; incompatibility may occur at higher concentrations (Dickman et al. 2005)
d. cyclizine + diamorphine incompatible at higher concentrations, the maximum final
concentrations that have been found to be compatible are:
cyclizine up to 20mg/mL + diamorphine up to 20mg/mL
4. cyclizine maximum 10mg/mL + diamorphine >20mg/mL
cyclizine >20mg/mL + diamorphine maximum 15mg/mL (Grassby and Hutchings 1997)
e. cyclizine 3mg/mL + oxycodone any strength reported compatible
cyclizine 6.25mg/mL + oxycodone 8.75mg/mL reported incompatible
for practical administration purposes and an appropriate safety margin the SPC
recommends a maximum cyclizine concentration of 3mg/mL (SPC, Gardiner 2003,
palliativedrugs.com SDSD)
f. dexamethasone sodium phosphate 0.15mg/mL + haloperidol 0.38mg/mL reported
compatible (Dickman et al. 2005)
dexamethasone sodium phosphate 0.6mg/mL + haloperidol 0.25mg/mL reported
incompatible (Dickman et al. 2005)
g. dexamethasone sodium phosphate + hydromorphone incompatible at higher
concentrations, the maximum final concentrations that have been found to be
compatible are:
dexamethasone sodium phosphate 2mg/mL + hydromorphone 20mg/mL
dexamethasone sodium phosphate >2mg/mL + hydromorphone 10mg/mL (Walker et al.
1991)
h. dexamethasone sodium phosphate 0.11mg/mL + levomepromazine 2.78mg/mL
reported compatible
dexamethasone sodium phosphate 0.14mg/mL + levomepromazine 1.79mg/mL reported
incompatible (Dickman et al. 2005, palliativedrugs.com SDSD)
i. diamorphine + haloperidol incompatible at very high concentrations, the
maximum final concentrations that have been found to be compatible are:
diamorphine up to 50mg/mL + haloperidol 4mg/mL max
diamorphine 50–100mg/mL + haloperidol 3mg/mL max (Grassby 1995)
j. haloperidol 2.5mg/mL + hydromorphone 5mg/mL reported compatible (Huang and
Anderson 1994)
haloperidol 2mg/mL + hydromorphone 10mg/mL reported incompatible (Storey et al.
1990)
k. haloperidol 2mg/mL + morphine sulphate 20mg/mL reported incompatible (Storey
et al. 1990, Trissel 2006, LeBelle et al. 1995); observational reports of compatibility at
lower usual concentrations (palliativedrugs.com SDSD)
l. hydromorphone 0.5mg/mL + ketorolac 15mg/mL reported compatible (Huang and
Anderson 1994)
hydromorphone 5mg/mL + ketorolac 15mg/mL reported incompatible (Huang and
Anderson 1994)
m. midazolam + morphine sulphate subvisual microprecipitation may occur (LeBelle et
al. 1995); observational reports suggest may be compatible at some concentrations
(palliativedrugs.com SDSD).
