Ep. 54- Healthy Aging Month Roundup
<p>It's the debut episode of PodcastRx with Chris Bender! Regular listeners know Chris is a clinical pharmacist with Diamond's Office of Pharmacy Therapeutics and Integrated Clinical Services (OPTICS) team and a repeat guest many times over on PodcastRx. We liked his appearances so much that we asked him to stay permanently- and he accepted! We're pleased to bring you a more segment driven-show centered around one of Diamond's most enthusiastic pharmacy nerds (his term, not ours :-)</p><p>In our first segment, which we've dubbed "Into the Clinic", Chris delves into some recent medication headlines and recent studies of note, including:</p><p>-Kisunla Approval</p><p>-PSA Levels in Transgender Women</p><p>-Saline Nasal Sprays and Sick Days</p><p></p><p>Then we shift into our main discussion block around some "mature" topics, as September is Healthy Aging Month. We explore:</p><p>-Effectiveness of Multivitamins</p><p>-Ways to Prevent Falls</p><p>-Advancements in Alzheimer's Medication</p><p></p><p>And in our final segment, we take a somewhat lighthearted (but serious) look at some crazy contaminants found in OTC vitamins and supplements.</p><p></p><p>Thanks so much for listening. Please rate, review, and share!</p><p></p><p><a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="https://www.diamondpharmacy.com/blog/podcastrx-sept-2024">Links to supporting material found in today's episode.</a></p><p></p><p>Music Heard in Today's Episode:</p><p>The Retro Synth by Art Haiz</p><p>Medical Logo (5 Versions) by SoulProdMusic</p><p>Medical by PaulYudin</p><p>Ambient Relax Background by PaulYudin</p><p>Quiz Countdown by PaoloArgento</p><p></p>
