💉 Pharmacist reacts to viral K-Beauty ampoules!

Today I’m reviewing some of the most popular Korean skincare ampoules featuring ingredients like kojic acid, niacinamide, PDRN, peptides, and collagen. Which ingredients are actually backed by science, which are mostly marketing, and which products are worth your money?

As a pharmacist, I’m breaking down the ingredients, mechanisms, and what the research actually says, unfiltered.

The FDA just approved Utebzi, the first oral carbapenem antibiotic in the U.S. and the big takeaway is that some patients may have an oral option when they otherwise might need IV antibiotics.

Less IV therapy could mean fewer infusion barriers, less hospital time for some patients, and more flexibility when culture results show it’s appropriate.

Still not for every UTI (we don’t need antibiotic resistance)

I have had 100s if not 1000s of scenarios like this when it’s a struggle to get a date of birth whether for a pet or for even the patient picking up a prescription.

This is just one of several reasons why prescriptions may take some time to fill.

🚨 Birth Control Recall Alert 🚨

A commonly prescribed birth control pill has been recalled nationwide after failing quality testing.

As a pharmacist, I’m breaking down what “impurities and degradation” actually mean and why the FDA issued this recall.
