Note: Be sure to include screening tools that would be utilized.

· Contraindications for use including significant drug to drug interactions

· Overdose considerations

· Legal, ethical, and social considerations

· Pertinent patient education considerations

· References page

Support your rationale with a minimum of 
three (3) academic resources.
