Anemia (folic acid/vit B12 deficiency) often seen in patients with inflammatory bowel's disease due to impaired absorption at the terminal ileum.
Crohn's disease was formerly known as Terminal Ileulitis.
Combining Dopaminergic drugs like levodopa (to restore depletion in the nigra-striatal pathway) and haloperidol together--> increases chances of developing increased rigidity.
Verapamil is never used together with a beta blocker because it can cause pulmonary edema!
Anti-cholinergics may you high and dry. Dry mouth. Hard faces (constipation).

Anticholinergics does not cause tremors, it is used in Parkinsonian patients to dampen down tremors!!
LMW heparin and warfarin are usually given for long term prophylaxis in patients with DVT/PE.
Treating UTIs with antibiotics in a pregnant woman can be a tricky thing, because antibiotics like Nitrofurantoin are teratogenic. Safest to stick to Cefalexin.
In pregnant ladies with hypertension (that sounds suspicious of pre-eclampsia), BP is usually lowered using Labetolol.
Bethamethasone is a potent gluco-corticosteroid used to stimulate fetal lung surfactant production in premature babies.
Dihydrocodeine slows everything down. Bowel motion --> Constipation, breathing --> respiratory depression, detrusor muscle contractions --> urinary retention, mental function --> drowsiness.
Geriatric Team meetings are SUPER boring.
