About this listen

 In this podcast accompanying the June issue of DTB, David Phizackerley (DTB Editor) is joined by Julian Treadwell (DTB Associate Editor) and Laurence Leaver (GP). David and Julian start by discussing the editorial - https://dtb.bmj.com/content/63/6/82 - which highlights some of the challenges in preventing VTE in early pregnancy. They also talk about a cohort study - https://dtb.bmj.com/content/63/6/84 - that assessed whether gabapentinoid use was associated with severe exacerbations among patients aged >55 years with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). In the second half of the podcast, Julian talks to Laurence about two articles - https://dtb.bmj.com/content/63/5/74 and https://dtb.bmj.com/content/63/6/85 - he wrote on managing ADHD in adults. Their discussion includes issues relating to diagnosis, effectiveness of medication, starting and titrating medication and some of the common adverse effects associated with medication. Both articles are currently free to access on the DTB website.
