In this episode, we highlight some of the most important clinical pearls on the following medications; nitrofurantoin, fentanyl patches, isosorbide mononitrate, fluoxetine, and triamcinolone.
Nitrofurantoin is an antibiotic used for UTIs. We need to be careful with this medication in patients with CKD.
Fentanyl is an opioid. There are many clinical quirks with fentanyl patches. For a full rundown, check out this previous podcast episode.
Isosorbide mononitrate is a nitrate medication so we need to be careful with the use of PDE-5 inhibitors.
Fluoxetine is an SSRI. It has a longer half-life than most SSRIs. I discuss what that means in this episode.
Triamcinolone (topical) is most frequently used for redness, itching, and skin irritation.
