Common question I get as an ID doc relates to duration of abx therapy
How do I decide?
Back in 2010, @PaulSaxMD revealed the secret "5/7 rule" in his @JWatch blog, causing panic in the ID community - Will we still get consults since our secret sauce was revealed??

Ok so maybe we have come a long way since then with selecting durations (and consult volume has been fine, phew)
But why do we ❤ a 7 day week to define courses of abx therapy?🤔
Do seven 24 hr intervals of abx exposure have some biologic bacteria busting properties?

Jason definitely struck a nerve for many of the #PharmEd & #TwitteRx folks. This is something we’ve discussed quite a bit in Maryland, but it sounds like a larger @ASHPOfficial / @ACCP task force is needed. A few thoughts… (🧵1/10)
1st: I am very proud to be a #pharmacist & love mentoring pharmacy students & residents on research projects every year…but…the large majority of PharmD grads *do not* have the knowledge/skills to *lead* a research project. We have to acknowledge that. (2/10)
2nd: (Trigger Warning ⚠️) A decent number of faculty members & clinicians are not strong research mentors. Even a faculty member with a PhD can struggle mentoring residents, because mentoring is a skill that needs development - but we just expect it as a given. (3/10)
In honor of Black History Month, I want to take some time and research black pioneers in pharmacy/pharmaceutical sciences. Follow this 🧵to see what I learn. #TwitteRx #PharmacyBHM #BlackPharmacists #BlackinPharmacy #BHM
Day 1/28: Anna Louise James was born January 19, 1886, to Anna Houston and Willis Samuel James. Her father was enslaved on a Virginia plantation until he escaped at age 16 and headed north to Connecticut on the Underground Railroad. #TwitteRx #PharmacyBHM #BlackPharmacists #BHM
Day 1/28: Anna was a diligent student that sought higher education after graduating high school. This drive led her to attend Brooklyn College of Pharmacy where she was the only woman in her class. #TwitteRx #PharmacyBHM #BlackPharmacists #BlackinPharmacy #BHM
