Essential listening for prescribers

“Anybody who has ever prescribed a medication, thought of prescribing a medication, has ever had a prescribed medication or knows someone affected by prescribed medications or their costs they should listen to this. If your medications cost way too much, if your medications cause too many unwanted side effects, download these podcasts and burn them to disc and ask, cajole, insist your doctor listen to them. I am a family physician in Australia, and these listening podcasts have affected my prescribing in so many ways. If a patient is on hydrochlorothiazide and their diabetes is poorly controlled, cut back the dose to 6.25 or even 3.125mg. It still works. 40 Mg Atorvastatin or 80 Mg Simvastatin, which costs the least? The silent killer of hypertension? No more. The effectiveness of Ezetemibe 1mg works as well as 10mg (at 1/10th the cost, indeed you could argue for this medication 0mg works just as well).”
