  • PA School Lifeline

    Ninja nerd was my go-to in school for topics I just could not wrap my mind around, and then for reviewing my weakest topics before taking the PANCE! Now as a new grad PA, I’m still using your content for review and helpful ways to think about explaining things to patients. I still picture the whiteboard from the anemia review when I’m interpreting CBCs and remembering which ones are micro/normo/macrocytic and where to go with my work up from there!! Endless praise and thanks to the Ninja Nerd te... more

  • Literally the best way to drive to work in the morning

    I’ve been unfortunate enough to be completely unemployed for a whole year, the amount of information I forgot was immense. I started working again, started learning again but it’s been difficult to get back to “baseline.” I used to watch ninja nerd videos to help prepare for my exams. Now I’ve found the podcasts and honestly, it is the best to listen to while driving to work in the morning. Topics and information are not just straight from a text book, like some others, but relatable and real. E... more

    Thank you amazing materials!

    I’m a pharmacist preparing for board exam, even though the courses are not directed for pharmacy purposes I’m using them as bonus to fully understand the context. I would like thank you all!

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Chlamydia
Q: What happens if a patient has chlamydia and is also pregnant? How do we treat that patient?
Doxycycline is avoided during pregnancy because of potential effects on fetal bones and tooth staining; azithromycin is used instead.
Chlamydia
Q: Why is a Gram stain not a good test for chlamydia?
Chlamydia stains poorly because it has a very thin peptidoglycan layer and is an intracellular pathogen. A nucleic acid amplification test is preferred for diagnosis.
Antineoplastic Agents
Q: What rescue agent is used for severe myelosuppression from high dose methotrexate?
Leukovorin is the rescue agent for severe myelosuppression related to high dose methotrexate.
Antineoplastic Agents
Q: What are common toxicities for a patient on vincristine?
Vincristine can cause peripheral neuropathy and is associated with myelosuppression, nausea, and alopecia.
Antineoplastic Agents
Q: What do you do for a patient on high dose methotrexate who develops rising creatinine and pancytopenia?
You stop the drug and consider giving leukovorin, which is like a form of folate that bypasses the methotrexate pathway and helps make thymidine.
