Podcasts about beta blockers

That's what Trish gets for waking up in Vegas... Tana went missing amidst a medical emergency before their Las Vegas live show, and it was nearly a disaster. Plus, we're jealous of everyone who cruised with JoJo Siwa on the high seas. And Ned Fulmer continues his humiliation ritual by trying stand up comedy, while Jeffree Star reignites his feud with frenemy Kat Von D.

At long last, the final episode of the Summer House season has arrived… or has it? Dylan is back with another episode breaking down the week's most important Bravo drama, starting with part three of the Lindsay Hubbard Smackdown (aka the Summer House reunion). Did we learn anything? Then, Dylan also weighs in on the end of Southern Hospitality's season, and where the show goes as it transitions into long-running status. Later, it's time for another double Real Housewives recap, as Drew Sidora battles a scheme of her own in Atlanta, and Rulla finally rejoins (most of) the group in Rhode Island.

Amy Phillips and Deanna Cheng do a hot-off-the-reunion recap of Summer House Reunion Part 3 and react to the upcoming bonus episode, “Summer House: The Aftermath,” which they suspect was filmed after the reunion to help West repair his image. In part 1 of this recap they dissect the confusing relationship timeline and secrecy involving West, Amanda, Ciara, and Meija, including claims of a 14‑month relationship with Meija and West repeatedly saying “I love you,” while he and Amanda dodge that label at the reunion and avoid any real respnse or connection to the situation they've caused. They argue West shows a lack of empathy, behaves politically, and uses manipulation and isolation, while Amanda appears sedated and self-focused, offering little accountability for betraying Sierra and engaging in an emotional affair. They discuss Andy's pointed hosting, speculation around beta blockers, Italy footage of Amanda and West, a TikTok sleuth claim about New Year's, Jennifer Lawrence tipping Andy about the reunion audio leak, and rumors from an alleged childhood friend about Amanda's past behavior. HONEYLOVE Get 20% OFF Honeylove by going to https://www.honeylove.com/DRAMA Promo Code: DRAMA HERS puts your health and goals first. forhers.com/drama   ONE SKIN Get 15% off OneSkin, go to: https://www.oneskin.co/ Code: DRAMA BLISSY Wake up with clearer skin, smoother hair, and cooler sleep.

Broadcast from KSQD, Santa Cruz on 4-16-2026: Dr. Dawn opens with a follow-up from an email from Maryland about a friend in Switzerland, who has ongoing neurological and gastrointestinal symptoms. She reviews the earlier effort to connect him with functional-medicine resources in Switzerland, then focuses on a new observation that the patient may have had multiple parasitic infections during travel in Europe. Dawn agrees that this may have left a major gap in the workup and says that, in puzzling neurologic cases, a sleep-deprived EEG can sometimes reveal a “fingerprint” of brain-based dysfunction even if the patient is not actively having symptoms during the test. Dr. Dawn says that for people over 60 who have never had a heart attack or stroke, daily baby aspirin is no longer considered a good routine preventive measure because the bleeding risks, especially gastrointestinal bleeding, can outweigh the cardiovascular benefit. She makes the distinction that aspirin may still make sense for secondary prevention in people who already have established cardiovascular disease. She next reviews several medications that she thinks many older adults should reconsider. She explains that phenylephrine, which replaced easier access to pseudoephedrine in many cold remedies, has been found to work no better than placebo . She also says Colace is not very effective, and she strongly advises older adults to avoid Benadryl because it accumulates with age, increases fall risk, and may be associated with cognitive decline. She adds that beta blockers are no longer preferred first-line treatment for uncomplicated hypertension in many older patients, and that medications targeting the angiotensin pathway are generally favored instead. Dr. Dawn introduces Mira Achilles in the studio, describing her as her excellent administrative assistant. Mira explains that she gathered health questions from peers from her college world. Mira asks what best supports focus for someone with ADHD working at a desk job. Dr. Dawn says the two evidence-based pillars are cognitive behavioral therapy and exercise. She walks through practical strategies including using calendars, reminders, index cards, and to-do lists; sorting tasks by urgency and importance; breaking large projects into smaller steps; creating small reward loops by checking off progress; and deliberately reducing distractions in the work environment.. She emphasizes that movement and exercise improve attention and executive function, and that ADHD management often improves when sleep timing is stabilized. Another of Mira's peers asks whether women should avoid very cold showers or ice baths during the luteal phase or around menstruation. Dr. Dawn says the answer is not absolute, but she cautions that cold exposure can hit women differently depending on hormonal state. She notes that the luteal phase may make vasoconstriction and cold sensitivity more pronounced, and she raises concerns about the physiologic stress of cold immersion, including possible adverse effects on circulation and rewarming. Her overall tone is cautious rather than enthusiastic, especially for people who are already prone to feeling chilled or reactive. Another contributor asks why some people faint when seeing needles, blood, or medical procedures. Dr. Dawn explains the vasovagal response: a reflex in which blood pressure and heart rate suddenly drop, reducing blood flow to the brain. She offers simple countermeasures such as crossing the legs, tightening muscles, squatting, or using hand-grip tension to help push blood back toward the brain and prevent passing out. Dr. Dawn closes by asking whether cortisol is a “good” or a “bad” hormone. Dr. She answers that cortisol is essential: it helps regulate daily rhythms, energy balance, and the broader hormonal system, so it is not something to think of as inherently harmful. At the same time, she says problems arise when cortisol is chronically dysregulated or excessive, so the goal is to maintain a healthy rhythm and avoid overwhelming the adrenal system.

Data reveals that young women in the UK are increasingly being prescribed beta blockers. What is behind the trend?Read more here - ‘Magic pill' beta blocker prescriptions for teenage girls rise 90% in a decadeWriter: Casey Magloire Producer: Casey Magloire Host: Ada BarumeEpisode photography: Joe Mee Executive Producer: Jasper Corbett Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

For decades, beta blockers were the go‑to prescription after a heart attack - meant to slow the heart rate and prevent future heart attacks. However, doctors are now reconsidering that long‑held approach. This week, Dr. Sanjay Gupta explains who may still need these drugs, who might not, and why tapering safely matters. Also, a listener question about the long‑term side effects of beta blockers.

A trial found that discontinuing beta-blockers in stable post-MI patients without heart failure was noninferior to continuing them, suggesting long-term use may be unnecessary. Second, the 2026 ACC/AHA lipid guideline promotes earlier, personalized intervention using the PREVENT risk calculator and expanded biomarkers to reduce lifetime cardiovascular risk. Finally, a JAMA study found thiazide diuretics carry meaningful hyponatremia risk, especially in older adults and women, urging careful patient selection

Beta-blockers offer no survival benefit for most heart attack patients with normal heart function, even though they're still widely prescribed Women face higher risks on beta-blockers, including nearly double the risk of death when given higher doses, while men show no measurable harm or benefit Side effects such as fatigue, dizziness, depression, and sexual dysfunction often burden patients without providing meaningful protection The real root of heart disease lies in damaged mitochondria, which are overwhelmed by linoleic acid (LA) from vegetable oils found in most processed foods You can protect your heart by reducing LA, eating the right kinds of carbohydrates, walking daily, getting safe sunlight, and tracking your HOMA-IR score

Contributors: Preeya Prakash MD, Adam Greenhaw PharmD, Travis Barlock MD, and Jeffrey Olson MS4 In this episode, cardiologist Preeya Prakash and medical student Jeffrey Olson listen in as two cases are presented from EMM's recent event, Tox Talk 2025. Talk 1- Digoxin Overdose Dr. Adam Greenhaw presents a case of a Digoxin overdose along with many pearls. During the studio listen in, Dr. Prakash helps to answer the questions of: How does digoxin work? Why might a patient still be on digoxin in 2025? What are the EKG findings of digoxin toxicity? Is there any utility in atropine for bradycardia caused by digoxin? Should you use calcium to treat hyperkalemia in the setting of a digoxin overdose? If/when might a cardiologist get involved in a patient with a digoxin overdose? Talk 2- Propranolol Overdose Dr. Travis Barlock presents a case of a beta blocker overdose as well as many associated pearls. During our studio listen in, Dr. Prakash helps to answer the questions of: What are the different beta blockers and how do they work? If you are worried about a propranolol overdose, what medications do you want on hand? What POCUS cardiac view can give you the most information for different scenarios? Why or why not might transcutaneous or intravenous pacing be a good idea for a beta blocker overdose? If/when might you want a cardiologist to get involved in a patient with a beta blocker overdose?

See all the Healthcasts at https://www.biobalancehealth.com/healthcast-blog The summer of 2025, the US has experienced record heat. Most Americans have been under a severe heat warning for months, which has caused me to review the symptoms, prevention and treatment for Heat Stroke.  This summer's heat was unusual, however it may recur in the future, so we must learn to deal with the effect of prolonged exposure to dangerous heat. Heat stroke is not classically a stroke as you know it, however heat stroke is a condition of a different kind, but no less deadly.  The conditions that can lead to heat stroke are listed below. Please think of these signs of Heat Stroke before you go outside in severe heat. At Risk Conditions for heat Stroke: High ambient temperature High body temperature (body temp of 104 or more) High humidity, Prolonged sun exposure (more than an hour at a time) Dehydration Loss of electrolytes through sweating which can result in heart attacks, seizures delirium and can lead to death. The hot weather we have been experiencing has been prolonged and has  all the qualities described above that may lead to heat stroke: Temperatures above 90 degrees Fahrenheit, High Humidity (over 50%), Bright sunshine, causing body temp to rise rapidly and continue for a long time even after a person has gone inside to cool off in air conditioning. You Should be aware of the beginning signs of heat stroke so you can remove yourself from the heat before it becomes an emergency, and you can protect your family from heat stroke. The early signs/symptoms of heat stroke include: Heavy sweating/ or no sweating at all Thirst Weakness of muscles Headache And Dizziness When you develop these symptoms, please listen to the signs your body is sending you and seek a cool place inside away from heat and sunlight. If the symptoms don't resolve quickly, then take the steps below to prevent progression of symptoms to result in heat stroke. Lie down (heat stroke can cause you lose consciousness and hurt yourself if you pass out) Drink cool but not cold water continually Drink Electrolytes (preferably products that contain Potassium, and sodium, chloride, magnesium) with every other 12oz of water. If you don't have electrolytes, Gatorade can be substituted for electrolytes (It is only Potassium). If you are unprepared and away from civilization, put several shakes of salt into a glass of cool water and drink it. Apply icepacks on the areas of the body that can cool you quickly: Underarms, groin, and neck. This will cool your body down faster than just sitting in a cool space. Don't be alone. Ask someone to sit with you in case you pass out or seize, and they can call 911 to take you to the ER. They can also make sure you continue to drink water and take electrolytes. If you feel your headache or weakness getting worse call 911 yourself. That is a late sign of Heat Stroke. Lastly, Heat stroke can make a person act out, with a temporary personality change. The affected person can hit and push the people trying to help him or her. That means they are in the late stage of heat stroke, and they need IV fluids a cooling blanket and Medical help. Remember, heat stroke can be deadly, and immediate action must be taken. If you or someone else has the following symptoms, then Call 911: passes out or seizes, gets confused and wanders around, acts out and hits or pushes has a rapid heart rate, has a bounding pulse, has either hot dry or very damp skin, complains of a headache or dizziness, nausea, vomiting rapid shallow breathing, like panting Often, they will complain of feeling cold and they shiver even though the temperature is very hot. Don't Wait!  call 911! In these cases, tell the 911 operator that you suspect heat stroke. So how do you prevent heat stroke? There are many ways to prevent heat stroke, if you recognize the conditions outside will put you at risk. First determine whether you are at high risk (below are the risks). Anyone can get heat stroke but people with the following conditions will develop heat stroke faster and more severely than healthy young individuals. The following conditions should best be treated by staying in a cool area inside away from the sun. Know the Symptoms of heat stroke and follow the directions listed above. Prepare yourself for heatstroke by carrying electrolytes more water than you think you will need, plastic zip locks to put ice in if needed High Risk Medical Conditions and Medications  Previous History of a Heat Stroke The biggest risk for heat stroke is having had it in the past.  People who have a history of heat stroke should be extra careful to avoid going outside or exercising in the heat and humidity.  They should stay inside during the heat of the day or on days that put them at risk. If you have almost had a mild form that you acted promptly and were able to avert the severe symptoms, that still makes you at risk for heat stroke. Heart Disease or other Circulatory medical conditions Diseases of the circulatory system place you at risk for getting a more severe form of heat stroke more quickly, so limit your time in the heat. Sympathetic and Parasympathetic Imbalance, from genetics or medications Disease of the sympathetic and parasympathetic nervous systems that cause excessive fluid loss due to sweating or increased body heat can cause you to develop heat stroke with less time in the heat and sun.  These conditions affect your ability to sweat, which is the way humans cool themselves down. Patients with these diseases don't sweat to cool yourself down like other people.  Stay inside until the temperature and humidity is safer. Age above 50 We all know that we are not as physically able as we age, even if we use testosterone pellets, so older age is a risk factor. Please limit your time outside in dangerous conditions to one hour at a time with 10 minutes or more inside a cool place before going back outside.  Medications that put you at risk for heat stroke when exposed to heat and humidity You may be unaware of the risk that some medications have when it comes to heat stroke.  Medications are part of our lives and most of the time we don't think about them causing problems or side effects, but many types of relatively safe medications can cause you to have heat stroke when the other folks around you are completely normal. My Experience with Heat Stroke I was playing golf in August in St. Louis, when the starting temperature at 8:30 am was 88 degrees F, and the humidity was 65%.  Being me, I thought to myself,” Well I'm in good shape because I have minimal body fat and good muscles, I should be able to golf with 3 other women even in this heat.” That day the humidity increased to 80% and the temp was over 90. Then the Pro announced that we had to stay on the cart path.  Well that makes golf a lot harder…,it takes twice as many steps  during a round and it requires even more exertion than walking the course and dragging a bag behind you….but I'm not a quitter (but clearly I was not thinking about being sick and taking my life in my hands)…which means I was stupid! I want all of you to be smarter than I was! Right away I started sweating profusely so much so that I had to change my golf glove three times in 6 holes. I still felt ok, but I couldn't hit the ball as far as usual, and I continued to sweat.  Despite 7 bottles of water, 2 with electrolytes, I started getting a headache, and then I couldn't make contact with the golf ball. My balance was off….” Uh-oh,” I thought, “it's happening”….At that point I knew I had to go inside but was far away from the club house.  I continued one more hole and I was dizzy and had poor balance….so I quit, and I drove the cart back to the club house not finishing the 9 holes. I sat inside, drank water took another packet of electrolytes and put ice packs under my arms and laid down in the women's locker room until my headache was bearable, but I knew I was not going to be productive the rest of the day. It took 24 hours of lying down in a cool room, drinking quarts of water and taking electrolytes, putting ice around my neck and head, and doing nothing else! I kept thinking “why did the heat and humidity affect me and not the other 3 women?” We are all in good shape for our ages 60-70, and we all exercise and lift weights as well as play golf a few times a week, so I thought about what my risk factors were. Finally, I checked out all the medications and supplements I am on and found that  some of them  put me at risk!  This incident made me look up the all the meds that can impact people and increase their risk of getting heat stroke. Medications That Increase Risk of Heat Stroke Diuretics- Spironolactone is a diuretic given to all women who take T pellets to prevent facial hair and acne. It can cause dehydration in hot weather unless enough water, and electrolytes are taken to replenish body fluids. Other reasons for taking a diuretic is hypertension, heart disease, swelling, and poor circulation.  eg Hydrochlorothiazide (HCTZ) and Maxide are diuretics. Beta Blockers- such as Metoprolol, Propranolol slow down the heartbeat and reduce blood pressure.  The actions of Beta blockers slow the cooling mechanism of the body. Antidepressants- There ae many types of antidepressants but the “Serotonin-reuptake-inhibitors” such as Lexapro, and Wellbutrin can increase the risk of Heat Stroke, but the mechanism is not known. Amphetamines like ADD medicine, Sleep Apnea drugs, and old-fashioned weight loss pills speed up the heart rate, increase baseline body temperature and decrease the body's ability to cool itself. Thyroid Replacement-Thyroid replacement increases the heat produced by muscle tissue therefore it increases body temperature. This causes a patient on thyroid to have fewer degrees to get to a critical body temperature. I will leave you with the warning that hot weather can kill you and knowing the signs and symptoms of Heat Stroke is the first step toward helping yourself and others avoid the worst consequences. If you have medical conditions or take medications that increase your risk of developing heat stroke you should spend most of your time indoors staying cool when heat and humidity is highest. I will leave you with the warning that hot weather can kill you and knowing the signs and symptoms of Heat Stroke is the first step toward helping yourself and others avoid the worst consequences. If you have medical conditions or take medications that increase your risk of developing heat stroke you should spend most of your time indoors staying cool.

This week, Dr. Joel Kahn dives into surprising results from recent medical research. The most eye-opening? Women recovering from a heart attack with relatively preserved heart function were found to have higher mortality risk when discharged on beta-blockers — a finding that challenges 40 years of clinical practice. Dr. Kahn urges listeners to discuss these results with their own healthcare teams. Other unexpected studies are highlighted too, including new insights on taurine, spermidine, meal timing, ketogenic diets, aspirin therapy, and even sugar substitutes.  Special thanks to igennus.com — use discount code DrKahn for savings.
