First day of my internship begins from tomorrow. I'm equally as excited as I am nervous. Hope it goes well!

There’s so much I would love to do with my life like cosplay, write, read, travel, dance…. Just so much but my brain just can’t split it up… it has to be hyper focused on one thing at a time and I’m not too sure why. But, I’ve been wanting to write again.

Here are some scopes of PharmD in India:

PharmD stands for Doctor of Pharmacy, which is a six-year program that includes five years of academic study and one year of internship or residency training.

PharmD is a professional degree that prepares students to work as pharmacists in various healthcare settings, including hospitals, clinics, retail pharmacies, research institutions, and pharmaceutical companies.

PharmD graduates are qualified to dispense medication, provide drug information, and monitor patients' health outcomes. They are also trained to collaborate with other healthcare professionals, such as doctors and nurses, to provide comprehensive patient care.

The scope of PharmD in India is promising due to the growing demand for healthcare services, increased focus on patient safety and quality of care, and the expanding pharmaceutical industry.

PharmD graduates can work as clinical pharmacists, drug information specialists, medication safety officers, pharmacovigilance professionals, and research scientists. They can also pursue academic and research careers, teaching and mentoring future pharmacists.

In India, the Pharmacy Council of India (PCI) is the regulatory body that governs the practice of pharmacy and approves pharmacy programs. The PCI has recognized the PharmD program, and graduates are eligible to register as pharmacists and practice pharmacy in India.

The starting salary of a PharmD graduate in India varies based on the job profile, location, and experience. On average, a clinical pharmacist can earn between 2-5 lakhs per annum, while a drug safety associate can earn between 3-7 lakhs per annum.

Some challenges that PharmD graduates may face in India include limited job opportunities in some areas, lack of recognition and awareness of the PharmD degree among some employers and healthcare professionals, and the need for continuous professional development to keep up with the changing healthcare landscape.

SCCM Congress 2023

Hey hey hey! So I shall be attending the Society of Critical Care Medicine Congress next week in San Francisco (providing San Fran hasn't simply fallen into the bay) and was wondering if there are any PAblrs, medblrs, pharmblrs, or nurblrs going? I realize it's a bit of a niche conference to an extent. But, if you're going, let's connect!

In all honesty, I am a little worried it will get cancelled or something. I only say that because of the horrible flooding AND my track record of signing up for conferences that then get cancelled.

Other than conferences, just chillin' like a villain in my ICU. Worked my last 12 of the week and will spend the weekend doing my volunteer gig.

I didn't understand what people meant when they said that the patients where I've done medical school and am doing residency are "very sick," and I'm starting to realize that this is because I haven't actually had context for practicing medicine in a location where patients are less sick, and it is not in fact all that average to think, "It's a good day when I have a patient with a functioning liver and kidneys!" or be pleasantly surprised when I don't have to list "type 2 diabetes mellitis, hypertension, hyperlipidemia, chronic kidney disease stage X, heart failure (of some sort)" on the chart's problem list just, like, at default baseline, with a side of chronic opioid use and/or intravenous drug abuse.

On the other hand, those same people were correct: it's making me better at treating all of those things and handling comorbidities really quick!

One of the big things I keep running into is pain management, because three common things for me to see are liver disease and kidney failure. To simplify it a lot, liver disease precludes the use of acetamniphen/Tylenol, and kidney failure precludes the use of ibuprofen/NSAIDs. There are other pain treatment medications, but I have less experience with them, and they tend to either be for more specific/adjuvant uses (like lidocaine, the gabas, antidepressants, steroids) or opioids... and I've literally seen two patients in the past week who had to get Narcan for opioid overuse.

On the other hand, obviously people in the hospital often have very legitimate reasons to be in pain and we don't want to leave them that way. But it's a hard line to walk when the family is asking questions like "Why is dad not getting enough pain medication?" and "Why is dad talking to the walls about his days in the war?" or when you get people pulling shenanigans like, "I'm allergic to Tylenol, give me Norco instead!" (Hint: Look up what the main ingredient in Norco is.)

Thank you, on-call pharmacy. :'))))

Another thing I'm quickly becoming relieved about is patients who are...not jerks, I guess? It feels not great to put it that way because generally being in the hospital is an extremely poor time for anyone, but also, it sucks when a solid 1/3 of my patients are actively ornery to everyone who tries to work with them for whatever reason (altered mental status, depression, being in pain, general anger issues, drug withdrawal). Shoutout to the folks actively working together with me to help them get better.

Anyway, the hospital is very tiring. Surely the emergency department I'm going to next will - nah, I can't even pretend to finish that joke.

YOLO! I am really enjoying how much and how quickly I'm learning! Despite the crazy hours this is definitely a drastic improvement on medical school in terms of actually enjoying the work.

I wonder how I would've turned out if my love for art and music were celebrated and encouraged as much as my love for science and medicine were growing up
