I have been drinking lots of water because humans are like 60% water, but that means the other 40% is human and I am not sure how much of that I am supposed to have.

When nature wants you really dead, it sends a snake. Or a tick. Or a bean. Or a mushroom. Or sometimes… a sausage. Had fun diving into the toxins that target the soft underbelly of your nervous system: the neuromuscular junction. 🧠💀🧵👇 pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/40541463/ #emsky #toxsky #pharmsky

Once again civil suits are the only thing providing any pushback on these crazy unregulated products www.classaction.org/nitrous-oxid...

Excited to co-moderate this @AACTinfo webinar today on some topics that won't just raise your hair, but might cause you to lose it all together! Hope to see you there!

MASSIVE, I cannot wait to try it. THANK YOU 🙏

My cardiac arrhythmia simulation now also simulates how a reentrant loop can be terminated by increasing refractory time as suggested by @empoisonpharmd.bsky.social Direct link to the updated part: jenevoldsen.com/posts/excita...

🚨 Benzonatate can kill—but rarely by accident. In our 20-year review, serious toxicity (seizure, dysrhythmia, death) occurred almost entirely in intentional cases. Unintentional? Nearly all walked away. Led by Dr. Cicci 👏 📄 pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/40511470/ 🎧 thepoisonlab.com/episode/fast...

Since it appears impossible to get people to stop saying Poison “Control” Center can we at least call it a Poison “Command” Center? We don’t command or control anything but maybe I could get a cool badge that way. (🤔Poison Consult Center best option now that I think about it)

I have to correct text messages to my wife from "Ok" to "Kk" because for some reason I read "Ok" as more of a "I will tolerate this" and Kk is a positive affirmation of plan. How crazy is this?

If the government won't regulate it maybe civil litigation will

EM pharmacists are resuscitation logistics pros. Adding med admin has been a huge boost to task flexibility. In this article, we share a checklist for implementation, and solutions to barriers, with case examples from PharmDs in several states. Grateful to work with this team! #EMSky #PharmSky

@empoisonpharmd.bsky.social did an episode on that The Poison Lab: You Left Your Bladder in The K-Hole? Episode webpage: thepoisonlab.com/episode/you-... Media file: pdcn.co/e/podcasts.c...

I find it interesting that 100% of the research I do that gets selected for platform/podium presentation gets denied by the first journal it goes to.

The final #SAEM25 tox case: a MASTER class from Dr. Travis Olives, MD on why bupropion isn’t your typical cardiotoxin. It doesn’t block sodium channels—it blocks gap junctions. This means NaHCO3 may not work! Missed it? He broke it down on #ThePoisonLab www.thepoisonlab.com/episode/mini...

Next up: @SAEM25 Matthew Stanton, PharmD, DABAT—one of the greatest tox wizards I know—breaking down the sneaky absorption of salicylates. A patient might have negative levels, but still be on the edge. Strong history= multiple levels. Call poison center before dispo! #AEMPLIFY

Tox time at #SAEM25 the incredible Jess Rivera-Pescatore PharmD, DABAT, clinical director of Alabama poison dropping some great management pearls on the concerning rise of nitrous oxide induced neuropathy! #AEMPLIFY @saemaemp.bsky.social

At #SAEM25 when a #ThePoisonLab listener gave me the COOLEST thing I have ever had. We are one step closer to making this a real drug! @saemaemp.bsky.social

I just want to say I use this constantly at the bedside when dealing with patients who have arrythmias to explain how they propagate. would LOVE LOVE a model where increasing refractory terminates reentrant rhythm so I can show how diltiazem terminates SVT. such an amazing tool, thank you

New phone new decisions!

Did you know that if you've had a heart attack, the flu can trigger another—sometimes fatal? Then a therapy was found to cut annual cardiac death risk from 17% to 6%. It was Zinc and Ivermectin. JUST KIDDING. It was the @#%ING FLU VACCINE WHY ARE WE NOT PRIORITIZING THIS? #pharmsky #medsky

Big Pharma taking on health grifters—ironic, but will it backfire on those already skeptical? I see tox from grifters daily but also challenge Pharma when they push drugs with shaky (or bought) evidence. A weird place to stand. 🎥 youtube.com/watch?v=Ks0y5ut6U5k #Pharmsky

It is easy to feel un represented in medical media as an EM pharmacist but then I realized I have never seen a show about nephrologists.... #nephmadness.

Can someone help me understand the idolatry of ivermectin? Help me understand why so many believe everyone should take it. I know a lot of it comes from this app. Please cite your sources w/ COVID decline people lost their grift sale, so came up w new indication?

There have been far more than just this case, though often it is the patient mistaking directions. Very tragic www.koco.com/article/okla...
