What To Ask My Doctor
Below is a list of questions to ask your doctor when being prescribed pain medication:
Also, ask your doctor about EVALI
15% of these Evali patients were less than 18 years old.
Symptoms:
- Shortness of breath
- Cough
- Chest pain
- Fever and chills
- Diarrhea, nausea, vomiting, and abdominal pain
- Rapid heartbeat
- Rapid and shallow breathing
Treatments may include:
- Corticosteroids. A type of medication that reduces inflammation in the lungs and throughout the body.
- Supportive care. Patients may receive supplemental oxygen through a nasal cannula. In more severe cases, they may be put on a mechanical ventilator or an extracorporeal membrane oxygenation machine.
- Antibiotics. These drugs may be given to the patient while diagnostic test results are being finalized as it’s difficult to distinguish EVALI from bacterial infections.
- Antivirals. Because EVALI causes similar symptoms to some viral infections, antivirals may be used, especially during influenza season.

What's the deal with Fentanyl?
Street names: beans, green apples, apples, shady eighties, eighties, fake oxy, greenies
Drug dealers often sell it as fake oxycodone. Fentanyl is much stronger than heroin and other opioids, so when a person has laced or has been unknowingly given Fentanyl rather than what they asked for - it can be deadly. It is even hazardous for law enforcement, as a lethal dose can be accidentally inhaled or absorbed through skin contact. Because Fentanyl is a synthetic opioid, it comes at a very low cost and dealers will often lace supplies to increase potency (look below, it's super strong). It has been reported to have been laced in cannabis (weed).
- 42% of pills tested for fentanyl contained at least 2 mg of fentanyl, considered a potentially lethal dose.
- Drug trafficking organizations typically distribute fentanyl by the kilogram. One kilogram of fentanyl has the potential to kill 500,000 people.
Our Friends at Newport Say....
It's Time To Check In On Our Male Teens
Girls tend to be seen in statistics as having higher rates of trauma, anxiety, and depression. A contributing factor is toxic masculinity that as a society expects boys to be rough, deal with problems on their own, condones their substance use, and to be angry and aggressive.
Males are more likely to complete a fatal suicide attempt than females because males tend to choose more lethal means. This becomes more troubling when we factor in that males are not receiving the same supports or space for their feelings and problems. This can heighten their risk factors.
If your loved one is a teen male, check out the links below for more background and ways to help him not deal with his problems alone.
