#RFKJr on Monday announced initiatives intended to ⁠reduce #SSRI use, while attempting to reassure Americans who still “want” [have] to take them. They include reimbursement guidelines for physicians who help patients come off of the medications ​as well as plans to share data on prescribing trends & an investment in training for #healthcare providers. #MentalHealth #PsychiatricCare #health #PublicHealth #science #medicine

…Experts in #pharmaceutical #regulation said the #FDA doesn't have the authority to unilaterally impose a #ban on #medications that have already received #US approval & have long been available without new evidence of a safety problem or finding that the original application seeking ⁠approval contained ​false statements. The FDA can ask a drugmaker to withdraw a #medicine, but the company can refuse. #RFKJr #Trump #MentalHealth #PsychiatricCare #health #PublicHealth #science

Red-light therapy does have health benefits but not the ones you think. From @NewScientist@flipboard.com: "Red-light therapy promises to treat everything from acne and hair loss to depression and chronic pain. Many of these claims are overhyped, but evidence suggests it can have healing powers." Registration may be required: https://flip.it/2IpFdz #Science #Health #Medicine

I genuinely think that my pharmacist might be inventing reasons to prevent the fill of some of my medications. Suspiciously, they all seem to fail with the same (and she's the primary) pharmacist, never with any fill-ins when she's out, and always for a different reason. GRRRRRRR #pharmacy #medicine #health

J. Craig Venter, who won the race to sequence the human genome, dies at 79. "Venter, who served in the U.S. Navy during Vietnam, said the experience taught him how fragile life could be and made him curious about how the trillions of cells in the human body conspire to create and maintain life." @AssociatedPress@flipboard.com reports: https://flip.it/XbQ7Qt #Science #Genetics #DNA #Medicine

Preventive care and early intervention are treated as line items to cut, not investments that pay off. Until systems reward keeping people healthy instead of billing for the most expensive procedure, costs will keep climbing. We need outcomes over throughput. #PreventiveCare #HealthcareReform #medicine

"Burge is one of thousands of patients served by RAM, a volunteer-run charity providing free medical, dental, and vision care to underserved communities across the United States. About half of the patients have no insurance. The rest have insurance they can't afford to use because of co-pays and deductibles." https://www.cbsnews.com/news/rams-free-clinics-full-of-needy-patients-but-slowed-by-red-tape-60-minutes/ #healthcare #clinics #insurance #medicine #dental #CostsOfCare #poverty #licensure
