With our hosts in a holiday mood and 2024 hurtling to a close, Chris reflects on the clinical, professional, and regulatory wants and wishes he'd like to see come true in 2025. We cover:

• Potential drug approvals
• Provider status for pharmacists
• Biosimilar substitution
• Relieving drug shortages
• A brief digression on Wegovy vs. Zepbound

Before that, Chris highlights the expanded approval of Bimzelx for hideranitis supportiva and breaks down updated guidelines related to COPD and Restless Leg Syndrome.

And for the ending Trivia Capsule segment, Chris makes a light-hearted (if tenuous) connection between the "Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer" and the medicinal benefits of the two most precious metals (medals?).

See you in 2025!
