Drug shortages continue to pose significant challenges for hospitals and health systems. While they gained national attention during the COVID-19 pandemic, pharmacy departments have managed them for decades. During high-profile shortages, institutions must rapidly establish command centers, engage stakeholders, and implement plans for frontline staff. Once resolved, shortages often recede from immediate focus until the next crisis emerges. However, pharmacy departments consistently manage shortages on a daily basis, often without recognition. Dr. Kyle Hoelting, Sr. Clinical Manager of Drug Information and Drug Shortages at Vizient, Dr. Heather Warhurst, Director of Drug Use Policy, Quality Initiative and Regulatory at IU Health, and Dr. Chris Nagy, Medication Sourcing and Supply Pharmacist at Intermountain Health join us to discuss a Vizient workgroup project designed to measure the impact of drug shortages and highlight the crucial role of pharmacists in their management.

Additional resources OHA COVID-19 vaccine website: covidvaccine.oregon.gov OHA Facebook Safe+Strong website Ask a Black Doctor on The Numberz REACH webpage and REACH Facebook Treatments for COVID-19 Q1: I have heard that some people can get treated for COVID-19. What treatments are available and how are they different from vaccines? Yes – treatments for COVID-19 are available for some people. Some treatments are given in the hospital, some are infusions and some are pills you can take at home. They are all in short supply and currently available to people who are high risk of severe disease. Vaccines introduce your immune system to a protein from the virus, allowing you to build up antibodies without being infected. Vaccination can also boost any natural immunity a person may have from being previously infected. When somebody with sufficient antibodies is exposed to COVID-19, they immediately fend off the virus, which prevents infection. As antibody levels drop, the virus may be able to infect the person but the immune system still has a decent chance to fight COVID-19 and prevent severe infection. Booster shots rebuild antibodies quickly, within a few days, even quicker than the original vaccination. This rapid rebuild also happens when an unvaccinated person previously infected with the COVID-19 virus gets their first vaccination. So be sure to get vaccinated and boosted, even if you have previously been infected with COVID-19. Treatments do not replace vaccination, which remains the most important step we can take to protect ourselves and our loved ones. If someone can't get vaccinated, there is a treatment available that helps the body fight the virus that causes COVID-19. Treatment for COVID-19 must take place shortly after someone has tested positive. If you've tested positive for COVID or have symptoms, contact your doctor right away. Q2: Someone was telling me about the federal Test to Treat program. Is this a program for everyone? The Test to Treat program connects people that are at high risk of severe illness from COVID-19 with the right treatment. It provides people a place to go to get tested, receive a prescription for a treatment, and fill that prescription all at one location. The program is intended for people that do not have a doctor or who cannot easily get in to see their doctor. However, anyone can receive treatment at a Test to Treat site. To participate, a person can use the Test to Treat Locator to find a site, or call 1-800-232-0233. These sites receive their therapeutics from the federal government. OHA is working on adding additional sites that fit federal criteria to be a Test to Treat site. Q3: If treatments support defense against COVID-19, why aren't they available to everyone? There a few reasons why treatments are not available to everyone. First, vaccines have proven to be the best defense against COVID-19. Get vaccinated and then boosted. Also, don't forget your flu shot. Secondly, because of nationwide shortages, treatments are not widely available. Finally, it is all based on eligibility. A healthcare provider determines eligibility based on your medical profile. They will consider things like if you cannot get vaccinated due to health conditions or if you had a bad reaction to the vaccine or if you need additional treatment due to a weakened immune system. Only a healthcare provider can assess if you are eligible. Q3: Are treatments safe? Depending on your medical history, certain treatments are not recommended. To determine which treatment is right for you, consult your doctor. You should also always check that your information is from a trusted source. If you have questions about any medication, contact the FDA's Division of Drug Information at 301-796-3400 or druginfo@fda.hhs.gov. Q5: What are the names of the FDA approved or authorized treatments and once I take them, how do they work in my body to fight COVID-19? The FDA has authorized two oral antiviral medications, one from Pfizer named Paxlovid. The other from Merck named Molnupiravir. With either one, they must be taken as soon as possible after a positive COVID-19 test and within the first five days of symptoms to be effective. Paxlovid works by stoping the replication of the COVID-19 virus in the body by binding to an enzyme that disrupts the virus' ability to mutate and keeps certain viral proteins from forming correctly. Molnupiravir interrupts replication of the virus' genetic material by introducing mutations. As the virus copies itself, it gets so mutated that it can no longer function. The same thing happens with the FDA approved antiviral drug Remdesivir, known as Veklury, it also acts on the virus' genetic material, blocking its ability to mutate. It is administered by injection into the vein through an IV. Monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) are authorized for use to treat COVID-19. They work by mimicking the antibodies your body produces in response to a virus. These molecules are produced in a laboratory and they work to block the COVID-19 virus from entering your cells. Monoclonal antibody treatment is a fluid given using a needle either into a vein (infusion) or under the skin (subcutaneously). Your healthcare provider or the site where you will be getting treatment will explain which treatment you will get. For both procedures, needles are used by a trained medical professional. If you are unvaccinated, you should wait 90 days after your treatment to get the vaccine. Regen-Cov, Sotrovimab, Bebtelovimab and Evusheld are all monoclonal antibodies. Sotrovimab is effective against infection by the Omicron variant. Q6: Finally, April is National Minority Health Month how can I get involved? This year the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) Office of Minority Health (OMH) and its partners are highlighting the important role community plays in helping to reduce health disparities in racial and ethnic minority and American Indian/Alaska Native groups. The theme for this year is Give Your Community a Boost! To support COVID-19 vaccination and boosting, OMH invites you to #BoostYourCommunity by using, sharing, and attending National Minority Health Month (NMHM) resources and events with your organization, communities, and network! If you are not insured, you might qualify for the Oregon Health Plan, which covers COVID-19 vaccines, boosters, treatment and home tests. It also covers regular check-ups, prescriptions, mental health care, addiction treatment, dental care and more. To see if you qualify and to learn more go to OHP.Oregon.gov and click Apply for OHP.

Apple Podcasts Google Podcasts Spotify Amazon/Audible Read the full show notes at The Pharmacist's Voice ® Podcast https://www.thepharmacistsvoice.com/podcast Dr. Renu Lal's path from pharmacy school to the U.S. Public Health Service was not a direct one. She earned her BS Degree in Pharmacy from UCONN in 1998. Then, she earned her Post-Bac PharmD from the Medical University of South Carolina in Charleston in 2000. Renu did not know what she wanted to do with her PharmD when she graduated. According to Renu, “It's ok to not know and make it up as you go along.” She spent time in community practice as a floater, then entered the U.S. PHS. Her PHS service was interrupted briefly when she left PHS to join a clinical regulatory team at Genentech in San Francisco, CA. When that role ended, she rejoined PHS. As of October 2021, her total service time is approximately 10 years. While in her undergrad program at UCONN, Renu learned about PHS. A speaker from the Indian Health Service spoke to her class. After finishing her BS Degree in Pharmacy, Renu joined the U.S. PHS as a JRCOSTEP and completed a paid, 4-month rotation at a Psych Hospital in SE DC called St. Elizabeth's Hospital. She loved the experience and thought it was amazing! Students can join either the JRCOSTEP Program or the SRCOSTEP Program. Both are paid positions with benefits. Visit https://www.usphs.gov/students/ to learn more. During our conversation, I talked about my experience with PHS at the Federal Bureau of Prisons. I did an 8-week rotation at FCI Milan during the last semester of my BS Pharm Degree program at The University of Toledo College of Pharmacy in 2001. My pharmacist in charge was creative and resourceful, and she did amazing things with a small formulary. I learned a lot from her and that experience. I wanted to join the Navy upon graduation, but I was medically disqualified due to asthma. The United States Public Health Service (U.S. PHS) is led by the Surgeon General of the U.S. and is more than 200 years old. It is one of eight uniformed services and is the only one dedicated solely to protecting and advancing America's Public Health. As a U.S. PHS Officer, Renu is first in line to defend America from public health threats, including deploying for public health emergencies. She has deployed many times and provided essential healthcare to underserved and vulnerable populations. The U.S. Public Health Service used to be “pharmacy's best kept secret,” but that's not true anymore because PHS has played a prominent role in response to COVID. As a PHS Officer, there is an opportunity to serve in many HHS (U.S. Department of Health and Human Services) agencies. Examples include IHS (Indian Health Service), BOP (Federal Bureau of Prisons), NIH (National Institutes of Health), CDC (Centers for Disease Control and Prevention), FDA (Food and Drug Administration), EPA (Environmental Protection Agency), SAMSHA (Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration), and others. Being an Officer makes it easy to transfer among agencies. According to Renu, PHS Officer benefits are great! They are on the military pay scale with paid vacation, retirement benefits (with minimum of 20 years of service), medical benefits, the GI Bill and more.

Welcome all to IS PHARMACOLOGY DIFFICULT Podcast! I am Dr Radhika Vijay.Does your textbook cover all the minute details, I mean all, everything like trade names, drug information, purity, chemical, physical characteristics, etc? Well, if not, in today's episode you will get the knowledge of drug information sources, especially official ones.The collective term used for drug literature is "Drug Compendia". When I say its official, it means that government supervises it. The two main Official Drug Compendia are Pharmacopeia and Formulary.Pharmacopoeia is supervised in a country by a set of chosen physicians. It covers drug details like chemical structure and properties, physical properties and molecular weight, assay techniques, drug preservation and storage methods, etc. Such a kind of information is very useful for drug regulators and drug manufacturers. Its hardly of any use to the clinical practitioners. Some well known ones are IP (Indian pharmacopoeia), BP (British pharmacopoeia), USP (United States Pharmacopoeia)Next, I want to talk about Formulary, its supervised in a land by set of pharmacists. Very useful information like drug use indications, drug dose, dosage form, cautions, contraindications, side effects and much more is covered in this. Description of drug class precedes the discussion of drug itself. Some well known examples are British National Formulary (BNF), National Formulary of India (NFI). With this chit chat about Official Drug Compendia, next topic to be discussed is Non Official Drug Compendia, surely to be in next episode...I will be call it for the day, Wishing you all a great , safe weekend!!

Welcome all to IS PHARMACOLOGY DIFFICULT Podcast! I am Dr Radhika Vijay.How Drug therapy evolved? What are the sources of drug information? Responses to these fireshot questions will be given in today's episode.Ancient Mesopotamian, Indian, Chinese, Egyptian records emphasized the disease nature to be something supernatural, a bad omen, Then greek mythology of four humors of body changed this belief and made patient the main focus. Development of science in a rapid manner proved all diseases affected different organs, so this lead to the main centre of research to be disease. Then came Microscope invention, all in all importance of drug therapy was gaining importance and demanded in depth knowledge and clinical skill and expertise. Drugs could prove both harmful and useful. Next I will be shifting my discussions towards Sources of Drug Information , I would broadly classify these in Primary, Secondary and Tertiary. Primary being original source of information. Secondary referring to review articles. tertiary is nothing but mix of both, summary embedded in text format. I will be giving a valuable tip to do research or find a query response, it goes as, start from tertiary to secondary to primary , i.e. backway or reverse order and it will maximise your quest in a simplified, easy, convenient and organised manner. With this great tip to study, research and memorise, I will be hinting the next episode content and call it for the day.
