A person inhaled an obscure chemical & called a poison center. Minutes later—for free—a world expert was consulted and determined it wasn’t an issue. I can’t even reach a human for my Uber Eats order—poison centers are incredible.

Well, I guess I'll give bluesky a shot. I've been pretty absent from Twitter for a while now because, well, look around... Let's see how things go elsewhere: @kylemelin.bsky.social See you there?

Physicians should care about what’s going on in pharmacy land right now. It’s bad. They should also not write “1-2 eyedrops” on scripts. 1 drop per dose is enough. 2 drops will overwhelm the tear film, resulting in wasted medication. But mostly the PBM thing.
Bottom line is this: If PBM reform doesn’t take place, including paying independent pharmacies above cost on the drugs they dispense, the entire United States will be a Pharmacy Desert. We are less than a year away from that.

I still distinctly remember the vaccination event where we discovered our shared interest in climbing & rappelling. Yazmín was a compassionate provider with a unique sense of adventure. Our profession and the community she served will miss her dearly. elnuevodia.com/noticias/segu…
