UPDATE: Ontario Pharmacists Association clarifies this recommendation doesn't mean customers can’t buy liquid Advil and Tylenol over the counter. Instead, pharmacists can use larger bottles to fill requests if over-the-counter products are not available.

2/4: How much does 8mg of ondansetron ⬆️ Qtc by?

What about 32 mg?

One study suggests low doses of QTc prolonging meds are unlikely to cause TdP in your avg patient, but would be careful if QTc > 500 or patient/drug is higher risk.

Thank you for this tool

Disentangling the Role of the COVID-19 Pandemic on Children’s Mental Health. https://t.co/Pdf6lWstKG

"A polarized stance of 'the kids are alright' vs 'the kids are not alright' oversimplifies the heterogeneity & complexity of the issues & ignores critical nuances of the data"

October 16 was Pharmacy Technician Day. We recognize the invaluable contributions made by pharmacy technicians to patient health, safety, and as an integral part of the health care team. Pharmacies couldn’t run without them and they deserve some appreciation! #RxTechDay

1/ Receiving feedback is HARD!

It puts into tension two core human needs:
- To grow🪴 & learn🎓
- To be accepted as we are🫂

Today’s #TweetorialTuesday is going to provide tools to navigate this struggle.

Thanks for joining the @MedEdTwagTeam!

A great read by Dr. Friedman. Fascinating that there has been no influenza or RSV cases this January, but daunting to think of the mental health, developmental & social consequences of COVID-19 on the paediatric population. Read here: https://t.co/6Vj2vDSTrx @DrJFriedman

Making small adjustments in a rocket’s launch angle has huge impacts on flight path and final destination.

I think about this concept whenever I teach medical students.
