  • Fantastic Podcast!

    I needed a refresher for my profession and this podcast goes above and beyond what I could ask for. Eric Christianson reminds us of how invaluable and under appreciated pharmacists are. His knowledge is impeccable and his episodes pack a lot into a short, concise and enjoyable learning experience.

  • Very informative podcast!

    As a nurse I encounter these drugs everyday and am so thankful that this podcast continues to cover the many amazing drugs we use in healthcare each day! I recommend doing an episode on IV solutions e.g NS, 1/2 NS Lactated Rings etc and compatible piggyback solutions for IV administration.
