This week's episode of the MedicCast podcast for EMT's and paramedics features Antidepressant Overdose with Lisa Booze of Maryland Poison Center.


Since antidepressants are one of the most common causes of drug overdose seen in the emergency departments around the country, paramedics and EMTS should know the key signs and symptoms of an antidepressant overdose. This episode covers those topics as well as the treatment of the problem in the field as well as once the patient arrives in the E.R. As usual, this episode of the MedicCast EMS podcast covers related articles and EMTs and Paramedics in the news are also included.
