Midazolam for Other
Adult dosing has a median of 2.5 mg across 139 published protocols, with the middle half between 2 and 3.75.
Includes 2 agencies outside the US.
Doses far off from what other protocols give are likely misreads, so they are left out until checked. How that works.
Adultmg
| min | p25 | median | p75 | max |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | 2 | 2.5 | 3.75 | 5 |
Values in mg. One value per source (that source's median), so a document listing a medication five times still gets one vote.
