Join us as we review recent practice-changing articles on transfusion thresholds in acute MI, COVID-19 rebound after treatment with ritonavir-boosted nirmatrelvir (PaxlovidTM), the prevalence of iron deficiency, as well as the debut of our new “corrections and omissions” section, in which we cover important knowledge updates on oral iron dosing and correcting serum calcium. And, find out why oral phenylephrine does not work and what you should prescribe instead for upper respiratory symptoms. Fill your brain hole with a delicious stack of hotcakes! Featuring Paul Williams (@PaulNWilliamz), Rahul Ganatra (@rbganatra), and Matt Watto (@doctorwatto).
