Last week we dealt with anaphylaxis, now it is available on the podcast (15minutes).
This was a session which I took sometime back for the residents (The Flipped Classroom).
I still see shocked patients getting a trial of steroids/antihistaminics before epinephrine. Steroids/Antihistaminics work (if at all!) to prevent the biphasic reaction and relieve the skin symptoms.
Epinephrine is the DRUG of choice for anaphylaxis and it should be administered ASAP.
This podcast will give you an understanding about when and how to use epinephrine.
Listen to the podcast.
There is also a handout available.
