    sethmctenn replied to Geminichilde's topic in General Students

    I bought Pharmacology Recall. The book comes with access to audio files. I burnt the MP3s on CDs and listen in the car. Because I drive 30 min each way to work that increased my study time by 1 hour a...

  3. Muslim Nurses Administering Haram Medications

    sethmctenn replied to CaribMuslimah, RN's topic in General Nursing

    The PDR doesn't list inactive ingredients. I don't remember if Drug Facts and Comparisons does or not. I suspect not. Depending on the strictness of interpretation, you might not be able to give any...

  5. Valproic acid for pain? Really?

    sethmctenn replied to nursetim's topic in Certified Registered Nurse Anesthetist, CRNA

    We have a few docs in our area who use Depakote for pain, especially back pain. Most are neurologists. My mother is on it for bipolar disorder. She also has bulging lumbar discs. Whenever she goes off...

  6. Immunocompromised patients and the flu vaccine

    sethmctenn replied to Otessa's topic in Disaster Preparation

    If she wants to reduce the risk from the flu vaccine, she could choose to have one from a single dose syringe rather than a multi dose vial. Often people who object to flu vaccination do so on the...

  9. Quality CAM Texts

    sethmctenn replied to Dr. Tammy, FNP/GNP-C's topic in Holistic

    Nutritional Influences on Illness - Werbach (lists research nicely) Textbook of Natural Medicine - Murray and Pizzorno (the e-edition is constantly updated) You might check out some of the protocols...

  10. Alternative Cancer Therapies and Budwig Protocol

    sethmctenn replied to keitheron's topic in Holistic

    I've had several patients who have done the Budwig protocol as part of a larger overall approach. It does address inflammation nicely, possibly decreases total estrogenic stimulation by competetive...

  11. Disturbed Energy Field? Yes or No?

    sethmctenn replied to VickyRN's topic in Holistic

    Having it listed as a NANDA diagnosis doesn't require anyone to use it. It just gives options to those who do practice energy medicine as part of their holistic nursing practice. I'm actually a bit...

  12. Family and old folk remedies?

    sethmctenn replied to CECE,RN's topic in General Nursing

  14. Is Texting legal

    sethmctenn replied to shbryer's topic in General Nursing

    I know that legally, there is no right to privacy regarding text messaging. It's a form of communication so insecure that we don't have a right to expect it to be private. If law enforcement can look...

  15. Immunocompromised patients and the flu vaccine

    sethmctenn replied to Otessa's topic in Disaster Preparation

    I would certainly avoid the attenuated live nasal flu vaccine Flumist but would get the inactivated flu vaccine
