Community Engagement & the Prevention of Drug Misuse with Proper Medication DisposalDid you know that proper disposal of medications varies based on the medication? Do you know the estimated cost per year for proper drug disposal? Where can you take medications to be disposed of properly? Join me for a conversation with Dr. Tyler Melton, PharmD to uncover these answers and more.

Outpatient Antiviral Treatment for COVID-19Whether you're a patient or a provider there are many considerations to know before taking or prescribing the new oral antiviral medications, Paxlovid, and molnupiravir.

I’ve never met a parent who wants their child to become a drug or alcohol addict. In fact, most parents work hard to keep their kids from substance abuse and all the dangers it brings. We applaud ourselves when our kids choose not to abuse alcohol or other drugs like meth, heroin, or marijuana. But have you thought lately about the trend towards the abuse of prescription drugs? The abuse of stuff that can be found in the family medicine cabinet has been on the rise for years.  Nearly one in five teens admits to abusing medications that are not prescribed to him or her. Experts advise you to look for these signs of prescription drug abuse: a change in sleep habits, a change in energy level, a change in personal hygiene, a change in mood or personality, a sudden change in grades, a change in their circle of friends, the loss of appetite, and constricted eye-pupils. Parents, monitor your teenagers and their friends. Your commitment to keeping them off drugs will protect them from hurting themselves in long-lasting ways.

This week has it all... 'the range', deceit, armchair detectives (you deciding homicide, suicide or accident... and, of course, stink fruit! We also play one of Scott's most embarrassing moments!

When choosing a drug abuse treatment center, patients need to be aware of the different options available. They should look for a center that is local, is highly recommended by family and friends, and that offers a choice of treatment programs and medications. Once a patient has found the treatment program that they prefer, it is important that they make sure that the medication they are given is safe.In the case of an addict who is in treatment at a drug abuse treatment center, one of the biggest changes that occurs is that the person comes to realize that they have a disease that they cannot evade. The physical and mental symptoms that an addict is having, and the dependency that results from abusing the drugs, all lead to their being overwhelmed by the disease.Of course, the addict is not the only one to suffer the debilitating effects of an addictive disease. It is important that anyone who suffers from drug addiction seek out help for their addiction, but even so, it is important that patients treat the disease for what it is - a disease that cannot be treated lightly or with only prescribed medications.Surrounding Areas for Prescription Drug Abuse Treatment in Delray FLhttps://goo.gl/maps/4iFRDB8dN26M4i3n9https://goo.gl/maps/MmMn7U5NaJwgUL9C8https://goo.gl/maps/7ELnuNUuFvCcPpiS8https://t.co/nm9TqxP4dF?amp=1https://t.co/o9yM9AgJ2a?amp=1https://t.co/OyKNWQTisQ?amp=1https://earth.google.com/web/data=Mj8KPQo7CiExMDNYMGJLVHgyN21LU1NwUGxLU3RjM2ktZ09HOVRoZlISFgoUMEU0NEQ3MUU4NDE0MjZDRTY0QjgPrescription Drug Abuse Treatment Delray FloridaThe choices that patients have regarding drug addiction recovery are as varied as the treatments themselves.
