honestly, going from Plum to Alaris and back to Plum, Plum pumps aren’t as bad as the reputation they get (but God do I miss having multiple channels lol)
age thresholds for commonly used drugs (and exceptions to the rules!)
times when peds dosing doesn’t line up with adults (amoxicillin max for AOM, propofol tolerance, ET epi dose in PALS vs ACLS)
i saw pictures that there was a pretty good turn out in Clearwater. Sometimes i’m proud to be a Floridian
(protests were extra meaningful as our *wonderful* governor wants to make our own DOGE)

I have a student on rotation with me which means teaching on pressors - I always love going *why* the different pressors have different receptor effects and thus clinical effects rather than just spitting out the facts

Gives me an excuse to remind my students why we learn med chem as pharmacists!
update from today: my system is moving forward with the FDA approved rounding scheme
it essentially is, just rounded a little differently
0.25mg/kg rounded UP to the next 2.5mg rather than the nearest 0.5mg or 1mg

i love Zosyn/Zyvox for nec fasc. Much more “pharmaceutically elegant” than vanc/Zosyn/clinda with its double MRSA/double anaerobic nonsense
