About this episode

Mannitol is a common medication you are likely to see on nursing school exams, NCLEX, and in the clinical setting. Because it requires careful administration, assessment, and follow-up, you will most likely see it utilized in the critical care environment. In this episode, we’ll go through mannitol using the Straight A Nursing DRRUGS framework.
