Description

Prescribe or Pass: The PoP Pod is the clinician edition of Prescribe or Pass an evidence-based podcast for pharmacists, pharmacy students and other clinicians who work with medicines.

Hosted by Australian pharmacist, educator and science communicator Kate Thomas, each episode explores one medicine, one condition or one clinical concept, explaining not just what we do, but why we do it.

Expect practical pharmacology, clinical reasoning, patient counselling, common misconceptions, adverse effects, ethical reflection and the questions that arise in real-world practice.

Some episodes stand alone. Others form structured educational series, with reflective questions to support continuing professional development.

Clear, practical and independent, PoP Pod helps clinicians build confidence, challenge assumptions and communicate medicines information more effectively.
