    Bravo!!! I wsh everyone could watch this, especially the parts about vaccines and Acetaminophen. As a former RN, I’ve seen too many people hurt their livers with Acetaminophen because they thought that since it’s sold over the counter they could take it like candy. Ounce of prevention…

    Acetaminophen long term use, what are the issues? I take 1300mg to sleep for arthritis pain. I have issues with NSAIDs. Some sources say it’s a problem some say not. I haven’t damaged my liver so far. UHC has inscrutably refused to cover any pain medications prescribed, numerous times, by my GP. And has repeatedly claimed no records of any contact by me, my GP and both at the GP’s office. I am not seeking drugs for recreation, but for pain which disrupts sleep. I have been prescribed drugs for a number of injuries and kidney stones, including oxycodone. I never finish the pain medications. I discontinue and discard after the pain subsides.

    I’ve taken melatonin every night for sleep since I was in elementary school. Never produced enough of it on my own (and my brain doesn’t know when to wind down because I have ADHD), and that lead to a lack of sleep and me being very crabby. I hope I’m not slowly dying.

    My husband was prescribed a drug by a locum doctor who hadn’t seen him before. It was our fantastic pharmacist that knew it was contra-indicated for taking with a medication that he was already prescribed. It could have had very serious consequences. She didn’t dispense it and rang the doctor and suggested a safe alternative. Pharmacists are fantastic.

    so the thing with melatonin ‘dependency’ is funny, because it’s counterintuitive but obvious at the same time. the body doesn’t gain any dependency or resistance to melatonin biologically, instead it’s almost all psychology. if you find yourself taking melatonin all the time and not falling asleep, it’s because you’re literally training your brain to ignore that sleepy signal. you take it and then what do you do? lie around on your phone until you’re too exhausted to continue? and what if you don’t have it, do you just stay awake doing other things besides quietly laying in bed? all the times that your brain gets the tired signal only for you to proceed to ignore it get learned, and eventually your brain just ignores the signal because obviously it doesn’t change your behavior.

    Supply problems with ADHD medications are most likely due to increased demand. With Covid lockdowns, a LOT of ADHDers suddenly lost all of their coping mechanisms, leading to a spike in both the number of adults being diagnosed with ADHD, and previously diagnosed adults that had not previously been taking medication choosing to start.

    Liquid dosage cup question: liquid meds always say only use the supplied dosing cup. My assumption is each dosing cup is different and a teaspoon or milliliter marking isn’t actually a real teaspoon or ml. The cup is simply marked so the actual dose is easily measured by hitting a certain ml mark vs being 5.7 ml it is just marked 5ml. Never compared a dosing cup vs an actual measurement to see but seems likely.

    This woman is lovely.

    But when she says pharmaceutical companies spend millions of dollars on research, there is some missing context.

    Pharmaceutical companies are given countless millions in tax dollars through grants and subsidies that allow them to perform their trials and research.

    And what do we get in return for donating our hard earned tax dollars to this industry?

    Exorbitant prices that pad their earth-shattering record profits that put a tremendous burden on the average citizen.

    The pharmaceutical industry is one of the most corrupt in human history.

    The Department of Defense did a study on expired medications. They had a lot lying around and wanted to know which were safe to use past their expiration date. It turns out most medications are safe to do so. Heart medications and some antibiotics are not. But I don’t know the whole list so you are probably safer throwing out expired meds…

    Ozempic makes you lose weight because you throw up, have diarrhea and stop eating because you’re so nauseous. If you’re not taking it for a pre-diagnosed medical disorder, it is just an extreme tool in the eating disorder tool belt. It’s a miserable way to live and when you stop using it, you’re very likely to gain the weight back. Definitely not worth it just to look thinner

    The question at 11:12 is crazyyyyy a pharmacist is literally the backbone of the medical community. The amount of times I’ve been prescribed something by a doctor that had bad interactions with other medications I’m on or not told how it would affect me or how to take it and what not to mix with it. There have been so many times where if my pharmacist didn’t catch those mistakes or malfunctions by doctors I would’ve been toast!!

    Pharmacists deserve more recognition! As an assistant, we constantly have people yelling, pointing, and making derogatory remarks. People need to learn more about the process of their medication and also realize just how many prescriptions are being filled every single day.

    Dr. Madison, as a pharmacist within a healthcare system, myself. “Clinical pharmacist” is redundant because all pharmacists use clinical judgement and knowledge/training regardless of practice setting. Just FYI to non-healthcare folks. Your community pharmacist has the same degree as a pharmacist in a hospital setting and thus has the same foundational education to be able to know which medications can’t be used together, etc.

  164. @Themis33

    March 2, 2025 at 6:45 pm
