Summary Crush those 11 pm “STAT: Patient agitated” pages with this expert guide to assessing for and treating alcohol withdrawal!  Dr. Joji Suzuki MD, addiction psychiatrist extraordinaire at the Brigham and Women’s Hospital, walks us through how to think about the risk of severe withdrawal, the different ways to manage it, and how to engage with patients as they’re leaving the hospital. In the course of this Car-Talk (well, not exactly the same as the critically acclaimed radio show, but he did record in his car….), Dr. Suzuki demystifies withdrawal and debunks some common myths: that we must manage withdrawal inpatient, that banana bags are the cure to a hangover and alcoholic malnutrition, and that we tend to under-medicate with benzos (actually, it’s the opposite!).     Show Notes | Subscribe | Spotify | Swag! | Top Picks | Mailing List | thecurbsiders@gmail.com | CME   Credits Written and Produced by Nora Taranto MD  Infographic and Cover Art by: Nora Taranto MD Hosts: Matthew Watto MD, FACP; Paul Williams MD, FACP    Editor: Cyrus Askin MD, Matthew Watto MD (written materials); Clair Morgan of nodderly.com Guest: Joji Suzuki MD    Announcement Join in!
