That is a question for your nurse. Keep asking different people until you get a straight answer from somebody.





Some IVs are yellow, but they are supposed to look yellow.What color are ivs suppose to be?like the liquid?
It depends on what fluid is being infused. Saline is clear, although they could add vitamins and supplements which would give the fluid a yellow tinge.
Some Replacement Fluids are different colors, Normal saline is clear. Could have been a mix with another fluid
