Ketamine Update with Brandon Kitay, M.D. Jan 27, 2022

Show notes

Esketamine is the first non-monoaminergic based medication which is FDA approved and indicated for treatment refractory depression. A longer duration of undertreated depression is associated with poor longitudinal functional outcomes. Instead of cycling patients through monoaminergic antidepressant trials and cognitive behavioral therapy approaches, according to Dr. Kitay, providers should consider treatments like esketamine much sooner in the treatment course.

The Strengths of Dyslexia Dec 17, 2021

With dyslexia being present in 20% of the population, we have to ask ourselves what the upside is to dyslexia. What do these individuals bring to the table? With such a huge portion of the population having a particular cognitive makeup, it is highly unlikely that dyslexia is to be deemed a corruption of normal pattern—nature is favoring large groups of people to display these traits. This episode dives into the strengths of dyslexic thought processes to hopefully help decrease the negative views surrounding dyslexia.
