I too used the less expensive 400 mg vial for a couple of years without problems but have switched to the 150 mg single dose do to warnings of possible failure. I really do not believe this, but I do not want to have to defend it in court should there be a failure.

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.
