Some clinical questions
Haven't posted these in a while. Here we go...
This came up a while ago. Are there any dosing strategies for initiating diltiazem with an IV bolus followed by po? From what I know it's supposed to be IV bolus -> second IV bolus if needed -> IV infusion -> start PO 1 hr before stopping infusion.

Thanks in advance! (Source: Student Doctor Network)

Moonlighting as a resident
Any1 do any? What setting was it in? Urgent care? ER? Both? I'm looking into it currently being in my last year of residency. Also for those that have done it, was it worth it? Did you feel comfortable with your knowledge base and skills?
On the financial side of things, it seems a lot of these gigs are 1099. For those that are financial savvy, can I write off my DEA license cost as a "business expense" ? I know you can for gas and what not, just wondering general rules. (Source: Student Doctor Network)
