Medication Overdose Considerations for Older Adults
Older adults have many special considerations relating to medication use, as we know age impacts how medications work in our bodies and how we respond to certain medications. We also know that medication misuse and abuse does happen among older adults, and that those special age-related considerations may still apply. In this session we’ll discuss safe medication use, accidental and intentional overdose, and harm reduction strategies to employ when working with the older adult population (age 65+).

OK, these are some good reminders, there’s no question that increasing your mental clarity and boosting your drive, comes with quitting. Yes, there are many ways to kick the habit, Steffon Barkload's Quit Drinking Forever is what worked for me, best shortcut I go’ogled that took days without withdrawal.
k'
Interesting thank you
This is really cool! I didn't realize until about a minute in that this is an official PSA, it seemed like a fun fan video that a UA-cam musician who grew up with Mr. Yuk and The Grinch would make for fun. I say that because I totally would have made something like this if my singing voice was still intact. But then again, maybe it's both a fan video _and_ an official PSA.
Still wondering, does he fart?
the yuk kind of question is that?
Yukk Yukk Yukk!
Mr yuk: the rapper who doesn’t need autotune
Does Mr Yuk fart though?

You're a mean one, Mr. Yuck You really are a heel You're as cuddly as a cactus, you're as charming as an eel, Mr. Yuck You're a bad banana with a greasy black peel! You're a monster, Mr. Yuck Your heart's an empty hole Your brain is full of spiders, you've got garlic in your soul, Mr. Yuck I wouldn't touch you with a thirty-nine-and-a-half foot pole! [Verse 3] You're a vile one, Mr. Yuck You have termites in your smile You have all the tender sweetness of a seasick crocodile, Mr. Grinch Given a choice between the two of you I'd take the seasick crocodile! You're a foul one, Mr. Yuck You're a nasty-wasty skunk Your heart is full of unwashed socks, your soul is full of gunk, Mr. Grinch The three words that best describe you are as follows, and I quote "Stink, stank, stunk!" You're a rotter, Mr. Yuck You're the king of sinful sots Your heart's a dead tomato splotched with moldy purple spots, Mr. Grinch Your soul is an appalling dump heap overflowing with the most disgraceful Assortment of deplorable rubbish imaginable, mangled up in tangled up knots! You nauseate me, Mr. Yuck With a nauseous super "naus"! You're a crooked dirty jockey and you drive a crooked hoss, Mr. Grinch You're a three decker sauerkraut and toadstool sandwich with arsenic sauce!
This is so good I farted in his face now

Thank you for sharing your expertise
These are really great videos. Thank you for putting them out!
Thanks so much to everyone involved in making this series, it is much needed. Just lost another old friend 3 days ago.
I found the original commercial from the Oddity Archive, led me here. Not disappointed😝Mr Yuk is mean, Mr Yuk is GREEEEEEEN
This is awesome!!! Will be sharing with the Dallas Poison Team
This is perfect!
It's contraindicated in people who are pregnant, who have an active brain disease that compromises the blood brain barrier like MS and who are on warfarin because ivermectin has blood thinning properties. Ivermectin blocks vitamin K so if a person was taking it regularly through their doctor they may want to consider taking vitamin K if their doctor recommends it.
Great discussion. I'm vaccinated and using human ivermectin to protect against breakthrough infection. So happy to have that extra layer of protection. I took it before I got the vax too. I have no side effects in over 1 year of use. MSM has not interviewed the doctors currently using it with success which is sadly making it very polarized on social media.
