S2 Ep81: Cancer Prevention, Misinformation, and Modern Wellness
Q: What led you to tackle the topic of cancer prevention in everyday life and do you see this in your pharmacy practice?
My work intensified during the COVID era with increased questions about supplements, nutrition, and lifestyle; social media amplified health buzz, leading many to seek prevention strategies beyond traditional medicine.
S2 Ep81: Cancer Prevention, Misinformation, and Modern Wellness
Q: Could you introduce yourself and share what your career looks like and what you specialize in?
I'm Sonia, a professor at PCOM in Georgia and a clinical oncology pharmacist who also does integrative nutrition health coaching; I trained with a PGY1 and PGY2 in Detroit and currently practice at an integrative medicine clinic.
S2 Ep82: World Psychedelics Day: Why Pharmacy Can't Sit This One Out
Q: What is the significance of forming the Psychedelic Pharmacists Foundation as a separate 501(c)(3)?
It enables charitable giving and education while the Psychedelic Pharmacists Association continues to operate as a professional body, ensuring compliance and focused support for the profession, schools, and the public.
S2 Ep79: Alzheimer Updates, Stroke Breakthroughs, and the Case for Early Treatment
Q: What are the practical considerations when starting Auvelity for Alzheimer's agitation?
Auvelity offers a new mechanism via dextromethorphan with bupropion to sustain levels, but clinicians must assess interactions with antidepressants and other CNS agents, monitor for dizziness or headaches, consider renal function, and balance benefits against ARIA and cardiovascular risks, all while continuing non-pharmacologic strategies.
S2 Ep72: APhA Preview - Dr. JAM Highlights Strategies for RSV Prevention in Adults
Q: What strategies help overcome vaccine hesitancy specific to RSV?
Lead with factual, honest information, build long-term trusted relationships, and use a personalized approach that respects patient autonomy; reassess hesitancy over time and re-engage patients with clear explanations of how vaccines work and who benefits most.
