Recycling of asthma inhalers – challenges and solutions by Transformation Partners in Health and Care

New York Democratic Primary winner George Latimer calls for unity. A look at the Ohio train derailment 16 months later including conversations with residents. Dr. Phil previews his primetime special with Robert F. Kennedy junior. Encouraging news for type one diabetics. Insider tips on swimsuit styles for women over fifty is discussed. Former president Trump has gag order partially lifted for upcoming debate with President Biden.

Inhalers weren't red flags yesterday, but today they are? Benzedrex and propylhexedrine have no age restrictions and no prescription necessary. In high doses, they cause a euphoric effect. It is difficult to detect. Officers often assume the person in question is high on meth. Nasal inhalers, used to help the average person, can have severe effects when used improperly.

Dr. John Overholt shares with host Liz Edwards some good news! Starting this summer, major manufacturers will cap patients' out-of-cost expense for inhalers. This restriction on pricing is long overdue as some patients are forced to limit the use of their inhalers because of its cost. Dr. Overholt shares how common it is for patients to use inhalers less frequently than prescribed and how dangerous that practice can be, creating more illness, more ER visits, and even the need for additional meds; but for those who can't afford the $400-$500 cost per month, it's a necessary maneuver. As Dr. Overholt explains, "A medication you can't afford is not a good medication." Learn when specific companies will begin capping their products and how this change will empower providers to prescribe the inhaler that works best for the patient instead of the one that's cheapest.

2023.02.03 – 0764 – How Meds Can Hurt Not Help Your Voice Medications – Again, sticky-sweet, tongue colour-changing over-the-counter lozenges do not touch your vocal cords. Although they might have a placebo effect (you feel as though they are helping, and so your confidence returns), the ones with anaesthetic or numbing properties may actually be causing further damage, giving you a false sense that everything's OK. Instead, focus on the root cause of your vocal fatigue by practising with a vocal routine. Other medications can affect your voice too:· Inhalers and steroid sprays· Antihistamines (such as hay fever remedies) can also dehydrate· Antibiotics· Antidepressants · Oral contraceptives · The menthol in some cold remedies may be an irritant · Decongestant meds for nose and throat problems often work by drying out the local tissues. That's obviously not good news. If you have a cold and a subsequently blocked nose, you may have a dried-out nose caused by your meds and a dried-out mouth caused by having to use it for breathing. Therefore, it's essential that you take plenty of fluids. Alternative medication may include:· water, gargling and sleep are free· steam – is cheap· mindfulness – takes just minutes· warm pineapple juice – some find that this can help soothe a throat Hosted on Acast.

For the almost 4 million Canadians who live with asthma, inhalers are commonly prescribed to help when breathing becomes difficult. In this week's health hack, Mary Jane Hampton looks at how it's common for people with asthma to overuse inhalers, and why that's an issue.

In this episode of the #CodaEarth podcast, host Laura Raiti speaks to Brett Montgomery, a Perth-based GP &  senior lecturer at the University of Western Australia. As someone who is passionate about the climate emergency and the role each of us play in reducing the carbon footprint of healthcare, Brett is also the lead author of our Coda action plan to reduce usage of metered dose inhalers (pMDIs).   To kick off the podcast, Brett touches upon the fact that while much of society sees climate change as a political or environmental issue more commonly associated with polar bears and icebergs melting, he believes it's important that we begin to see it as a huge public health issue to cultivate real change. Brett believes that by reframing it as an issue that has real and serious health consequences, it will ensure people who aren't currently concerned by its effect are motivated to act when it comes to both climate change and their own health.   Brett then goes on to discuss in further detail his particular point of focus, which is the overuse of inhalers in healthcare. They discuss that while inhalers may appear to be a minor contribution to our impact as a whole when compared to the likes of aeroplanes and cars, in actual fact they have a disproportionate effect on health system's carbon footprint.   In fact, the healthcare system in Australia contributes about 7% of our entire national footprint – so not an insignificant number - and within the 7% about a quarter is down to prescriptions, of which, a fair chunk can be attributed to these inhalers.   Laura and Brett then go on to talk about ways in which the Coda community can get involved, and Brett highlights that it's important that everyone is more mindful about prescribing inhalers and that they employ critical thinking when it comes to ensuring that an inhaler is the right choice for both the patient and the environment.   They explore alternatives such as dry mist or powder inhalers, and consider a study that shows that between a third and a half of people who are prescribed these inhalers struggle to find evidence of the diagnoses.   Finally, they look at what the future could look like for Australia, should we work towards a collective movement against climate change, and discuss leading countries such as the UK and Sweden, both of whom are working towards eradicating overall health emissions.   To close, Brett shares his key piece of advice for those wanting to make change: the best climate action is what you're good at, what you enjoy and what the world needs.   Join Coda Earth now to safely reduce pMDI usage in your own practice.

Antihistamines can cause many short-term effects such as urinary retention, constipation, dry mouth, increased appetite, and more serious long-term effects. One study showed a 3.5-fold increase in the risk of gliomas, a common type of brain tumor in patients with long-term antihistamine use for allergic conditions. Decongestants produce vascular effects like an increase in blood pressure, headache, sleeplessness and irritability. Long-term side effects are unknown.Corticosteroids can cause thinning of skin and mucous membranes, discoloration of the skin, and irritation. Used topically they favor absorption into the systemic circulation which can cause disturbance of the normal hormonal levels in the body. Corticosteroid eye drops can cause glaucoma, cataract formation and infection. Inhalers can cause irritation of the mucous membranes of the mouth and throat, as well as yeast infections of the mouth.Oral corticosteroids cause still more severe side effects over the long term such as:stomach ulcerationcataract formation (opacity of the eye lenses)osteoporosis (reduced mineral content of bones resulting in weaker fracture-prone bones)muscle weaknesshyperglycemia (abnormally high blood sugar levels)Delayed growth when used in childrenIncreased blood pressureThomas, Liji.

If a student has an asthma flare at school, they need treatment right away. But, while schools carry epi-pens and overdose reversal medication, they do not stock inhalers. Pediatric pulmonologist Dr. Christy Sadreameli fills us in on a bill to require schools to have rescue inhalers on hand for emergencies. Former school nurse Mikki Fritz tells of a pupil who had an inhaler registered with the school, but that device stopped working, "Luckily, his mother had enough foresight to have an inhaler with him. So, he had one in his pocket and he used it on himself." Read the multi-society policy statement, "Ensuring Access to Albuterol in Schools: From Policy to Implementation." Then, an update on open enrollment from Michele Eberle of the Maryland Health Benefit Exchange. Open enrollment ends February 28th. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

In this podcast, Rachael Moses, Multimedia Editor of Thorax BMJ, is joined by Professor Ashley Woodcock, Manchester Academic Health Sciences Centre, The University of Manchester, UK, to discuss the paper "Effects of switching from a metered dose inhaler to a dry powder inhaler on climate emissions and asthma control: post-hoc analysis." This paper was a secondary analysis of the Salford Lung Study in Asthma. In a real world study SLS asthma showed that a once daily combination treatment in a dry powder inhaler improved asthma control over one year, versus usual treatment. This secondary analysis looked at the impact on carbon footprint for those patients switching from a pressurised MDI to DPI treatment.

Are you one of the five million people with asthma in the UK? If so, could you be on a different inhaler - one that could control your asthma better while also being kinder to the planet? “Puffers” - or aerosol spray inhalers - contain potent greenhouse gases and can be tricky to use correctly, so not everyone can control their asthma. We speak to Caroline from Cornwall, who has switched inhalers and it's transformed her life. James talks to the doctors who think far more people could benefit from making the change. We also speak to Nerys from North Wales who has started antiviral treatment for her Covid infection. We explore the new drugs with virologist Dr Elisabetta Groppelli and Prof Chris Butler who is running the clinical trial designed to pinpoint who is likely to benefit from antivirals the most.

In this episode, it's Iggy and his crew of superhero inhalers to the rescue, helping to keep young David's asthma under control. Will they prevail, or will the villainous 'Team Trigger' continue to cause David to have asthma attacks? Find out in the action-packed book 'Iggy and the Inhalers', written by Dr Alex Thomas.

If you’ve happened to hear about an asthma medication that will ameliorate or perhaps prevent COVID-19, think twice before you go looking for an inhaler. And, of all the things that have changed in the past year, is your personal hygiene one of them?

It was called a "breakthrough" — a study showing that a common asthma medication could be used to improve people's chances of surviving COVID-19. Now, doctors in Germany and Austria are not only casting doubts on the study itself, but are extremely concerned about its consequences.

If doctors were trained to get results we would all be healthy.  But doctors are taught to manage health problems.  We're taught to fear and to listen to doctors.  Doctors don't fix problems so why are we listening to them?

Imagine if you will, finding yourself increasingly short of breath. Sure, maybe you smoked in the past, maybe you never did. Maybe you could lose a few pounds, maybe not. But for whatever reason, you can't seem to get a good breath. You cough, sometimes you can't stop. Your doctor gives you steroids, cough syrup, nothing works. One day, you decide to see a specialist and are diagnosed with idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis. Whatever that is, it doesn't sound good to you. Listen to this interview with Stevan, who was diagnosed with idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis and had a double lung transplant five years ago.There is so much to learn from Stevan regarding his philosophy about living with chronic illness.For more information on this interview:https://bit.ly/35hN3uM

1. Processed Food (Inflammation)When arthritis brought my whole life to a dead halt this spring, I decided to try a plant-based diet. The results were ridiculous. In about a month, I went from barely being able to walk to running a 60-second 400m (in barefoot shoes) and regularly crushing 20-minute 5Ks like they were casual jogs.I'm now 5'11" and 145 pounds, which would have felt wimpy to my 170-pound self, but accepting my body the way it is feels amazing.Here's the best part—fruits, veggies, and legumes are so low-fat, you can literally stuff your face all day long and not gain a single pound. If you keep lots of vegan munchies on hand, it's easy to resist junk food.Plus, plants are much cheaper than meat!Breakfast: steel-cut oats and half a banana (instead of cereal)Lunch: freeze canning jars of legumes/veggies (instead of takeout)Snacks: nuts and seeds (instead of chips and candy)Dinner: veggie stirfry, sweet potato stew, etc (instead of meat)Dessert: fresh fruit (instead of cookies and pastries)Rules: mostly plants, not too much, and organic (when possible)Further Reading: How Not to Die by Dr. Michael Greger2. Working Out (Injuries)Planet Fitness closed about two weeks after the Coronavirus pandemic started ramping up, which left me without a gym for the first time in ten years. Initially, I tried using free weights, but the pain that had been developing in my knees and hips just got worse.I could barely walk and I started to question whether I would ever be able to run again. As a last-ditch effort, I bought a book on bodyweight exercise. I didn't care for it, but the general idea was interesting.After some experimenting, I finally stopped taking other people's work out advice and stuck to natural balancing/flexing moves. That, plus switching to a vegan diet made my whole body leaner, meaner, and pain-free.It's also more fun and less hassle, overall.Gyms: cancel your membership, you don't need itWeights: throw them out and just use your bodyAdvice: ignore fitness advice and do what feels naturalFlexing: tense your muscles, aim to feel a “burn” (not pain)Balancing: do exercises on one leg to recruit more muscle groupsBending: avoid full extension, as it can stress your jointsCardio: running and hiking are better than static liftingFreedom: bodyweight exercises can be done whenever, whereverDIY: use benches, walls, and tree limbs to work different angles3. Medication (Allergies & Baldness)I started taking Zyrtec in middle school to treat my pollen and dust allergies. It became so automatic that I took it every day for fifteen years. After going plant-based, I decided to go medication-free.I thought my allergies would go nuts, but there was almost no difference. I also felt less drowsy and more focused during the day.The same is true for my other meds. Propecia made me depressed instead of stopping my hair loss. Nasal sprays gave me nosebleeds. Inhalers reduced my lung capacity. In every case, the side-effects of modern science were worse than the symptoms I was trying to alleviate.Allergies: wash/vacuum frequently and eat a vegan diet (inflammation)Hair Loss: just shave your head and grow a beardMental Health: minimalism, outdoor exercise, avoid TV and newsSleep: buy a hands-free book stand and read for 1–2 hours before bedEverything Else: some or all of the aboveFurther Reading: Lost Connections by Johann Hari4. Cushioned Shoes (Plantar Fasciitis)In 2017, I got a part-time job at a local running store. With the employee discount, I was able to score some of the best shoes in the world—from high-cushion Hokas to “zero-drop” Altras.The problem was, no matter how many brands I tried, I kept getting injured. Calf strain. Plantar fasciitis. Joint pain. Shin splints. Plus, the shoes would wear out in under three hundred miles (not bad at a 50% discount, but expensive for regular customers).Finally, I ordered a pair of Vibram FiveFingers (minimalist toe shoes). After switching to a “midfoot stride” and training nearly barefoot for three months, my injuries disappeared. I haven't had a single twinge for TWO YEARS, which is virtually unheard of in the running community.Bonus…at 2,000 miles, my Vivos and Vibrams both feel brand new.Cushion: throw your cushioned running shoes in the garbageBarefoot: practice running barefoot around a local turf or grass fieldStride: use a midfoot stride (it's impossible to heel-strike barefoot)Footwear: buy Vibram FiveFingers or VivoBarefoot (if you don't like toes)Orthotics: inserts are a scam (your arches do not need support)Trails: trails are softer, more varied, and easier on your bodyMiles: gradually increase your distance with barefoot shoesRacing: put your body and health before your training goalsFurther Reading: Born to Run by Christopher McDougallConclusion: The Caveman RuleThere's been so much hijacking of the word “natural” in the past decade that it's hard to even tell what's natural anymore. Amazon and Google are rife with brands that claim to be organic (or minimal or harmless) but turn out to be poisonous garbage.My favorite trick for deciding what's natural is “the caveman rule.” When you're unsure about a product or you have a bad feeling, ask yourself…How ridiculous would a caveman look doing this thing?I can picture a caveman eating plants, running, washing their face, and wearing minimalist shoes or sandals. But when I try to picture a caveman eating at McDonald's, bench pressing two hundred pounds, using a nasal spray, or strapping $200 cushioned Nikes on their feet…I just can't, it's too fucking ridiculous.
