## Document profile

- Document type: Medication reference
- Where it fits: Adult / Adolescent Standing Order Drug Guide is an official medication reference used to verify drug selection, dose preparation, limits, and the authority attached to a specific patient or indication.
- Document note: Use the complete official document for mandatory wording, exceptions, definitions, and requirements that cannot be reduced safely to directory metadata.

## Use this source safely

- Confirm the patient population, indication, concentration, route, repeat-dose limit, and maximum dose in the current source.
- A drug's appearance in an inventory or dose chart does not by itself establish treatment authority; use the applicable standing order or base direction.
- Check current OCEMS notices and agency direction before field use.
- When the source and a summary differ, follow the current official document and medical or operational direction.
