Still doing 60 mg IM ketorolac? Consider 15 mg instead, glad to have the IntraMuscular data to go with the IV from @painfreeED previous work.
I sum it up this way, "Ceiling effect of NSAIDS: there are only so many COX to block!"

COX=CycloOXygenase enzyme

Types of toxicology papers, @xkcd style! Ping @cleebennett @ERtox @Natekunzler @Harvard_Tox @PeterRchai and more

@SonoMaxMD Yes!

Physician asked me for push-dose epi. Nurse grabbed epi code syringes, handed them to me. I stated, “that’s not what she wants, I’ll make it, I have to dilute it.” She responded, “that’s epi that we push.” She’s right. I’m thinking a better name might be micro-dose pressors

[Emily Rx @endowayRx]

@DrugInfoGeek This probably inspired the idea when I was mulling it over, I had recently been reading some of the psychedelic microdosing lit

@jdfj @AJWPharm I love peppinephrine but while we’re all yelling at each other through masks, I wonder if the p in front would occasionally be a little muffled/not heard clearly

[Emily Rx @endowayRx]

@ZachFoughty @DrugInfoGeek I’ve heard them referred to that way as well and like it but not sure the nomenclature would gain enough traction for widespread use

[Emily Rx @endowayRx]

@EMdruggist Omg yes please, I love this!

I was today years old when I learned that you can put a fentanyl patch on a snake 🤣🤣

@bessbell Luckily there is a third option, Jo Jorgensen, that will be on the ballot in all 50 states! Check her out!

As an emergency pharmacist, I have always been so proud of the collaborative nature of the ER. I’m not a member of any EM organizations. The lack of interdisciplinary collaboration in our EM organizations and this kind of behavior is why

Words matter.

In the medical setting, *resident*, *residency*, *fellow*, and *fellowship* belong to physicians ONLY. ⬇️📃

Every EM physician, resident, & student should be paying attention to the battle on scope of practice. 🥼

That’s the tweet.

Brilliant proposal from Aravind Chodavarapu for how we can refer to post-graduate pharmacist training: phresh phresidents doing phresidencies and phellowships

[Emily Rx @endowayRx]

This is frustrating. It seems we still have some work to do on interdisciplinary collaboration...and respect

@EMinFocus @DerekMonetteMD @hrh_approved @emresidents @ACEPNow @AAEMRSA @SAEMonline @CORD_EM @ACOEPRSO @aaeminfo @ACOEP @SAEM_RAMS As an emergency pharmacist, I was always so proud of the collaborative nature of the ER. SAEM is one of the only EM organizations that allow pharmacists to join. I’m not a member; the lack of interdisciplinary collaboration in our EM organizations and this kind of behavior is why

[Emily Rx @endowayRx]

@hrh_approved Out of curiosity, what should pharmacy post-graduate training be called?

[Emily Rx @endowayRx]

Everyone involved in facilitating simulation should listen to this excellent conversation! https://t.co/TxfCbnsrNq

@littlecheee But they have a replacement program! I can send you the link!
