That was our first reaction. I just wasn't sure if anyone had actually followed one of the oral routes that are written about.

No. Insist on following the protocol, unless you are doing an IRB approved research project to prove that the oral works.

Does anyone have any experience with ORAL methotrexate for treatment of ectopic pregnancy? Our pharmacist is looking to try and get away from having to stock IM methotrexate.

Thanks,

The American Medical Association is no longer designating CME hours for AMA Category II CME credit. However, physicians themselves may self designate learning activities as Category II CME credit hours if they feel it is of sufficient educational merit and meets the formal definitions of continuing medical education. OBGYN.net believes these interaction in this forum meets these criteria. For further information see the AMA web site.
