Shownotes

Sarah Mitchell teaches the timing and pairing rules of endocrine drugs: levothyroxine alone in the morning and four hours from calcium and iron, the sore-throat warning on propylthiouracil and methimazole, and corticosteroids given in the morning with food, tapered, and increased under stress. She covers desmopressin and water intoxication, estrogen clot risk, ACHES and missed-pill rules, the antibiotic myth, and the obstetric drugs from oxytocin to methylergonovine, with scenarios on adrenal crisis and a child on desmopressin.
