We recommend that EMS providers replace atropine, naloxone, diphenhydramine, fentanyl, and midazolam frequently if they are practicing in low call volume or high-temperature environments. Further studies will be needed to determine if re-dosing midazolam, naloxone, and atropine is the appropriate clinical strategy in this setting if adequate clinical effect is not reached with a single dose.
