Blood pressure targets are no longer one-size-fits-all. Learn why 120/80 isn't right for everyone, how guidelines differ across countries, and what really matters for your health-beyond the numbers.
Narrative medicine helps patients and providers understand how personal stories shape trust in medications. Learn how listening to patients' experiences can improve acceptance of generic drugs-even when science says they're identical.
In my latest blog post, I discuss the importance of community outreach in promoting HIV awareness and prevention, with a focus on the antiretroviral drug Atazanavir. As a key player in the fight against HIV, Atazanavir has been proven effective in suppressing the virus and improving patients' quality of life. By educating our community about this medication, we can empower people living with HIV and help prevent the spread of the virus. Additionally, I explore various community outreach strategies and tools that can be implemented to raise awareness and encourage prevention. Join me in spreading the word to help create a healthier, more informed society.
