I'm a dentist and actually have a specific question, but I figured there are probably a lot of questions I don't even know to ask, so fire away! If this post gets some good responses I plan to post a link in r/Dentistry so more dentists will see it. My specific question has to do with the number of

2 months ago child’s mom reported child had rash after taking azithromycin, so we added that to allergies and contacted doctor to switch to clindamycin. We get another rx for azithro now but this time the mom says she thinks that the rash that time was due to taking tylenol, and wants to take the az

It smells like stinky feet and vomit mixed together, who formulated that and decided that was okay? Did you do a focus group, because no one will take that stuff. Also you can FlavorX that stuff, but it can only do so much.

I’ll try to keep it short. Patient comes in from ER with script for Norco and Clindamycin. Clindamycin comes out to be $29 and Norco $5. Patient says he cannot afford the antibiotic.

First of many questions to come, apologies in advance. I’m a newer provider constantly trying to better myself. But yeah I’m curious what you guys do to screen for psoriatic arthritis. Our clinic is pretty high volume so not a lot of time. I typically ask about finger, knee, and heel pain, as well a

I'm aware that ["the use of oral isotretinoin for the treatment of acne may result in altered triglyceride, AST and ALT levels."](https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/22714752). But I still pine to lower my ALT level. On Jun. 20 2018, my dermatologist ordered a blood test, which was flawless. My (bas

I’m currently on 20mg isotretinoin (Accutane) and have been on it four around five months now. I’ve had eczema my entire life, but it has never gotten this severe. I apply Cetaphil moisturiser cream every night and morning, followed by 1% Dermaid. I occasionally take antihistamines such as Telfast t

Hey all. My husband has adult onset acne and it is brutal. He's been trying topicals from the dermatologist for months, including retinol and special face and body washes, and has seen virtually no improvement.

Hi fellow Redditors, I am struggling with psoriasis for the past 10 years and am only 22 years old. I have tried various treatments such as isotretinoin, ayurvedic, homeopathic medicine, etc., but nothing seems to work. My psoriasis only gets worse every winter. I was wondering if anyone has had exp
