I am not a nurse, so take my advice with that in mind.
It doesn't matter how you give it..neat....with water..or with sodium chloride solution, but administer it slowly.
Thank you sqad much appreciated.
sarky sqad. Lol
Sqad is a doctor and is groping ( hur hur hur)
towards prescription, dispensing and administration
( on which I gave evidence to the House of COmmons actually)

Doctors prescribe
Chemists dispense
and nurses administer (when you can find one hur hur hur)

different words for different actions
..... some doctors administer....

so---- if is IN something else does it matter ? That is called formulation and refer to my fantastic post about Paul Turner and digoxin - that er no one read - yes it might

but does it here?

raw - the formulation is 'sodium free'but does in become unstable in sodium solution - no it doesnt seem to.

Is this a medico-legal q?
anyway the answer is: doesnt seem to
which wd defeat any civil claim
and certainly should acquite anyone is a works disciplinary charge

The package insert is here
https://www.medicines.org.uk/emc/product/3420/smpc#gref
AND
the relevant bit is to scroll down to section 6

and so I had to refer to the package insert ( complex)
Tramadol - that's slammerdol !
Does anyone remember naughty naughty Nurse Plummer

https://www.theguardian.com/uk-news/2019/jan/28/laura-plummer-freed-from-egyptian-prison

who took tramadol INTO egypt ( eek!) and then said it was her boyfriend ! ( she had a husband who stood by her)
goes well with veeno apparently

yes, three and a half y at Qena Naughty Leddies Prison

and I observed that Egyptians must process tramadol differently to anglos,
and so there it is a v v bad drug of addicition
oo-er nursey !
and scroll down in the package insert to

CYP2D6 metabolism

apparently they say ( I thought it might divert down a different path) that 25% Africans have a silent gene - Tr doesnt work

would mean that Tramadol is a pro-drug and need to be converted to an active form.

But doesnt explain why it sends Egyptians into the 5 or 6th heaven when er formulated wiv veeno.

These are very very technical points ( but relevant) and if a passing mod deletes it all on the grounds of obscenity ( "CYP2D6 metabolism" DOES look like an ad for penis enlargement) I wont even exclaim in a suitably gormless tone: what the funicular!
