  • Food and Supplement Drug Interactions
    May 16 2024
    On this episode of the Real Life Pharmacology Podcast, I cover some of the most common food and supplement drug interactions. The 3 G's can potentially increase the risk of bleeding in patients on anticoagulants and antiplatelets. I discuss what supplements these are. There are some vitamins that can cause drug interactions. Vitamin C is a supplement that can alter the absorption of some medications. Metal cations like iron can bind certain medications and reduce absorption. I discuss which medications are most likely to be affected.

  • Vonoprazan Pharmacology – New Esophagitis Medication Class! Episode 326
    May 9 2024
    On this episode, I discuss the new medication vonoprazan and where it will likely be used in practice. Vonoprazan is from a brand new class of medication called "PCAB". I discuss this medication and its pharmacology in this podcast episode. Drug interactions and cost are the two major downsides of this medication that will likely limit its use compared to the PPIs. CYP3A4 inducers like rifampin, carbamazepine, and phenytoin should not be used with vonoprazan. They will reduce the effectiveness of vonoprazan.
