      Putting in some work in the ORs at ⁦@WRBethesda⁩ - got to help with some interesting cases and saw several people get Tylenol and other meds to help provide anesthesia and post-op pain relief with minimal opioids. They all woke up comfy and happy! 😃 ⁦@ASALifeline⁩pic.twitter.com/J5ukgkok37

      Dr. Kline & Jonelle Elgaway discuss how research studies pitting Opiate pain medicine against over-the-counter medicines (OTC), like Tylenol/Motrin, are biased to give false results, studies published as "fact" are in fact, a unequal comparison.https://youtu.be/qXFhhQTziNM

      We should never be afraid to challenge beliefs/ assumptions, but I worry about a world where YouTube videos & blogs are given same weight as peer reviewed studies & long trusted research/ science institutions. The erosion of our faith in the scientific process is bad for all...

          When I was forced off the meds that greatly improved my quality of life and eased my pain, I was told to take high dose Tylenol. It never eased my pain, but destroyed my liver. We’ve been told for many years that Tylenol is a dangerous drug for good reason.

          After 16 yrs on pain meds, I have never had any problems with any of my organs. Ever. Now when I was taking 800mg of ibuprofen 3 x day, I was in the hospital many times & was told I could no longer take ibuprofen. Go figure.

          There are plenty of peer reviewed studies refuting the effectiveness of Tylenol, sir.

          SG, when our agencies r coming out and stating untruths and we "know" they are false, that agency (CDC/DEA,etc) suddenly loses all credibility. I once relied on stats, info, warnings from the CDC, now.. I wouldn’t believe a word they said without extensively fact checking them.

          Unfortunately some of the so called research studies have been “crap” and neglect expensive qualitative studies that need done but theres a wealth of stories out there if someone will harvest of how opioids taken away have destroyed their life

          I challenge this belief or assumption. Alcohol affects many more lives in America & down through history than any derivative of the poppy. Look at the #s. This nanny state tendency to impose your morals on the country won’t work. De criminalize and leave cpp’s alone.pic.twitter.com/tPoS0Ohdxq
