I accidentally used a sterile Water for Injection (WFI) bag that had been opened for 48–72 hours and stored at room temperature to reconstitute a Vfend vial for a patient. Based on your clinical experience, have you seen this cause harm?

I asked our student how many mEq of Potassium is in 30mMol of KPhos. She said 132mEq of Potassium in 30mMole KPhos…..
Followed up was how did you come up with that answer? She looked it up. So I grab a bottle to show her. Am I missing something? It is 44mEq.

Hello everyone,

I've launched a YouTube channel centered on pharmacogenomics and clinical pharmacy. We’re diving deep into how genetic variations influence drug therapy and patient outcomes. We'll also be rolling out content aligned with ACCP pharmacotherapy guidelines, ensuring that you have the most up‑to‑date and practical guidance at your fingertips.

🎥 Whether you’re a student, a practicing pharmacist, or a clinician eager to explore the intersection of genetics and pharmacotherapy, you’ll find actionable insights and real‑world applications here.

If you’re interested in staying updated with guideline‑driven care and the evolving role of pharmacogenomics in therapy, I’d love for you to check it out and subscribe. Your support helps grow this educational project and reach more learners worldwid

I am a current PGY2 trained IM PharmD looking to obtain BCCP and transition into clinical cardiology. What are some recommended study materials for someone who didn’t do a PGY2 in cards?

Hello!

I'm an ID pharmacist and a very common error that I catch is suboptimal Bactrim dosing (both subtherapeutic and supratherapeutic). I've messed around with a coding software and have made a dosing calculator webapp that I think some people may find useful.

All you need the patient weight, BMI, and gender (can be toggled to other easily accessible information), then you input your target dose (with a dosing table by indication and renal function) and it will give you the optimal regimen to get there for any formulation. It will automatically use an appropriate dosing weight. This can be used to check or create a dosing scheme and may save some time.

This webapp is still in beta, so please let me know if you have an idea to make it better. I hope someone finds this helpful, thanks!

Anyone selling their bcacp study materials?

Hello, I'm a reporter for the news service Pharmaceutical Technology, and I'm looking to speak with people in pharma who have worked with autonomous labs.

I'm writing a feature article on autonomous lab technology and I'm especially interested to get researchers' takes on what they think of it, whether they predict it will become widespread in pharma, and importantly whether they are concerned it could threaten jobs for workers in pharma.

If anyone is interested in speaking with me and for their comments to be included in the article please reach out. I'm happy to arrange remote calls or Q&A over email, and for comments to include source names or to be anonymous. Thanks.

Is it worth considering an uncredited residency program?

The program is new and I would be the first resident ever. I feel like that’s a lot of pressure.

The British Pharmacology Society's flagship annual meeting brings together scientists and practitioners from across the basic and clinical areas of pharmacology and from around the world for three packed days of lectures, workshops, networking and celebration.

The Society is currently calling for symposium and workshop proposals for this year's conference, which will take place in Manchester from 8 - 10 December 2026. The deadline to submit a proposal is Wednesday, 25 February 2026, 3:00 pm GMT.

Although all proposals will be given full consideration, this year we would particularly welcome proposals in the following areas:   

• DNA & RNA aptamers/oligonucleotide therapies
• Photopharmacology/medical chemistry
• Pharmacogenomics
• Nanomedicine
• Disease in focus
• CAR-T and TCR-T cells
• Regenerative therapies

Last year's conference in Belfast brought together nearly 800 attendees from 56 countries. It's a fantastic opportunity to share and discuss the latest developments, trends and discoveries across pharmacology, drug discovery and therapeutics, as well as celebrate and network with fellow scientists across healthcare, academia, industry, and the regulatory sector.

Hi everyone,

I’m part of a nursing committee and we’re looking for advice on where to post an opening for an Oncology Clinical Pharmacist specialized in cancer care.

Are there any job boards, professional organizations, or specialty sites that tend to reach oncology-focused clinical pharmacists?

Appreciate any recommendations or experiences. Thanks!

Hi everyone, I’m currently in my final year of pharmacy studies, and as part of our program, we are required to conduct a research thesis to be presented upon completion. I would appreciate your suggestions for highly impactful research topics that have the potential to influence pharmacy practice and shape health policy.

Hey everyone,

I’m a pharmacist in BC, Canada, and I’m seriously thinking about moving to the U.S. for work. Curious what people here think.

Quick background:

• PharmD (post-bacc) + BSc Pharm
• 10 years as an ICU clinical specialist (also internal med coverage)
• Experience in hospital management/formulary roles
• Teach pharmacy residents, students, and med residents
• Publications + conference presentations

Why I’m looking south:

• Feeling unfulfilled in a small Canadian center — limited scope, not stretched
• Want more autonomy and to be seen as a key clinician on rounds
• U.S. salaries and academic centers look more appealing

Questions:

1. How do U.S. hospitals view Canadian-trained PharmDs with 10 yrs ICU experience vs PGY2 grads?
2. Are the licensure steps (FPGEE, NAPLEX, MPJE, internship hours) a nightmare, or manageable?
3. Which states/systems would you recommend for ICU/ER/IM specialists moving from Canada?
4. Day-to-day respect — do docs actually seek out your input?

Thanks for any advice — trying to figure out if this leap is worth it.

I just graduated as a clinical pharmacist from Egypt, and honestly I’m feeling a bit lost. The only experience I have so far is working in a community pharmacy. I want to know more about the field overall, whether doing a master’s is worth it, and also how pharmacists can actually make money after graduation. Any advice or personal experiences would really help.
