The patient was admitted to the internal medicine service, and he was empirically started seftracon and banco mison. Shortly after admission, he becomes diaphretic with severe abdominal cramps, nausea and diarrhoea. His blood pressure increases to one 67 over one o one, and his heart rate is now one 20. He appears agitated. So i guess my question at this point is, you talked about how there may be some other levels, or other components of this presentation. How do you go about a addressing opiat withdrawal ind patients like this who may be admitted with unrelated processes?
