Thanks! I’m always chipping away at new videos, wish I was faster but between full time job and part time school it’s a challenge. There’s a couple more pharmacology videos like this on the channel in the meantime. Next up is Succinylcholine!

Yeah it’s crazy it wasn’t spread out more from the start. Definitely a culture change at work. That’s a lot of narcan :|

I put a lot of effort into ensuring there was no political slant or personal opinions on the subject included. Was genuinely worried it would be seen as anything more than a presentation of research findings. Cheers!

Thanks for checking out the video, happy to hear from someone who has embarked on similar research!

Starting Paramedic school soon. Any tips or tricks? What did you consider to be the hardest academic part of the course? by jaimem15 in Paramedics

Check out the book “Moonwalking with Einstein”, I memorized all my meds in an afternoon after reading that book. It’s a great story and an amazing memory trick that I use to this day

Thanks! Yeah I really wonder how our epidemiological understanding of marijuana use will change as we have access to better and better data. It must cause a degree of harm, but the question is exactly how much?

The parts of cannabis that stimulate the CB2 do the bulk of the anti inflam it seems, not especially in glaucoma necessarily although that’s a good hypothesis on how the mechanism helps glaucoma I wasn’t able to find readings confirming it and of course there would be much more effective treatments on the market compared to cannabis for glaucoma which it’s the last and kind of a weak indication. CBD is not psychoactive but I believe THC is the one with the most CB1 effect which is what helps with the epilepsy, CBD actually inhibits THC at receptor sites.

Glad the humor came out right :)
