When the Doctor orders 150 mg of Hydroxyzine be given to Jerico while in the aircraft, the attendant that gives it as an IV push. This is evident by the immediate reaction to the drug by Jerico and by the fact that the syringe has no needle. This may be considered a mistake as, in common clinical practice, hydroxyzine is given intramuscularly (IM). The reason for this is that IV injections of the drug can cause hemolysis and local tissue necrosis. Given the setting, the medical team likely had few qualms about such side-effects and preferred the IV route for its rapid and reliable drug delivery.
