Pharmacy hot take: if you work in a pharmacy, you should know how to be a good pharmacy patient. You shouldn't be the type of patient that your literal coworkers complain about dealing with

I don't believe in feng shui, but...
I'm about 90% certain that the person that invented it was autistic. I mean, "the room needs to be arranged in a certain way or it doesn't feel right"? C'mon! It had to be autism 🤣
What does AI slop have in common with my dreams?
They can both be described as hallucinations, there's no discernable plot, and any visible "writing" is unintelligible gibberish
Ok, I think I just remembered what it was. It's SDN "student doctor (dot) net". Did anyone use the forums or the sample interview questions? Does it still exist? Maybe I should see if I can find my login. Lol
A random question for #medical peeps. I could try some googling, but don't feel like it: does anyone remember the website used (and low key hated) by aspiring med and pharm students? It had forums for different schools and even had sample interview questions. Is that still a thing ppl use? Lol
Ok pharma peeps. I saw someone on tiktok assigning various medical specialties to one of the original 151 Pokemon and it looked kinda fun. I know they won't include pharmacists bc they're just doing physicians but I got to wondering what Pokemon would pharmacists be? #pharmacy
The dumbest people you know are being told by AI "great question!" or "you're absolutely right!" a hundred times a day
Dear prescribers:
The directions you tell the PATIENT need to match the directions you tell the PHARMACY so we can bill it and fill it correctly
Is it normal for the Treasury Secretary to be this involved in the war effort? Why did *this guy* become a mouthpiece for this administration in the media?
What kind of doctor prescribes Sutab (a little used colon prep kit) on Friday afternoon for a colonoscopy first thing Monday morning? Almost no one in the district has one in stock bc it's not used often bc it's expensive and not often covered by insurance
Frankly, I find it embarrassing that a hundred years ago some dude miscalculated and declared that spinach has 10 times more iron than it really does and so today everybody just pretends that 3mg per serving is A LOT OF IRON
🎶It's alright
You were dancing through the lightning strikes
Sleepless in the onyx night
Fossil poop is coprolite
"they always worked hard and never asked for a handout"
Fuck that. Let's destigmatize using the safety nets available to us. When I was going thru school, my wife and I had 3 kids. I wouldn't have successfully become a pharmacist if we didn't use Medicaid, food stamps, WIC, and government housing.
I forgot about that! I feel like it's not used as much in the US as oxymetazoline
Can anyone think of any generic medicines that start with J, X, or Y?
Randomly remembered that my PhD pharmacologist uncle wrote a guide book about OTC medicines 30 years ago (including the "new" class of H2 acid blockers 🤣) and now I kinda want to get my hands on it and update it for a 2nd edition so I can say I'm a published author. Lol
Dear drs:
In all sincerity, it's great y'all are rxing Journavx for perioperative pain relief and I really hope it's as effective as it's marketed as.
That being said: the stock bottle comes with 30 tablets, why y'all gotta keep prescribing 29?! Please just give them 1 more tablet. For our sake. 🤣
Seriously. The greed and hubris endemic of the compounding pharmacy industry gives me major chills regarding the explosion of companies advertising compounded GLP-1's... 😬
Currently reading this book. An excellent time to remind everybody that you want to be really fucking careful with compounded medication, especially if you inject it.
I assure you, it is still very much used quite often. So much so, we've been struggling to keep it in stock lately
Signed,
Your friendly neighborhood pharmacist
Hey, so, the "TrumpRx" website is literally just a collection of already-existing manufacturer coupons for brand-name drugs, and GoodRx for everything else.
Fuck ICE
The first Minnesota murder, they refused to let a medical professional help the woman they shot. The second Minnesota murder, they simply shot the medical professional.
Guys there is so much wrong right now. You may feel powerless, but you aren’t. To paraphrase Nemik, every small act of resistance pushes our lines forward. Keep volunteering. Keep checking on your neighbors. Use your voice.
Hey you MAGAt boot licking "tread on me harder daddy" fuck faces:
You've proven you don't care about the govt thugs violating your 1st, 2nd, and 4th amendment rights, might as well start letting them violate your 3rd, too. Spare us taxpayers from paying for the Hilton. They can sleep on your couch
Tell me your pets name with a gif
This whole regime is literal hell for autistic justice sensitivity
Ya know what *does* cause bleeding? Getting shot in the fucking face! "Internal bleeding" my ass! Fuck ICE
