Answer to Question 1

SW for injection and sterile NS for injection are the two most common diluents for injectable medications.

Answer to Question 2

The dorsogluteal, which is the upper outer quadrant of the buttock, is no longer recommended. The location of the sciatic nerve varies from patient to patient. An injection into the sciatic nerve can cause permanent disability.
