I'm only a high school student wanting to study medicine one day so I'm not sure if I'm sounding stupid but I think that these kinds of concepts show why chemistry is a requirement when wanting to studying medicine at many universities.

Can you explain why peripheral edema is a side effect?

[@JasonWright-hd2yz]

Hi there. Edema from CCBs is caused by vasodilation. It is not a sign of underlying pathology unless they have signs of HF. Hope this helps.

[@kimchee94112]

Take it for hypertension but side effect is hypotension? Say what?

where is mechanism of action

[@flaviadallari8147]

very good video, but why they call patients " clients"?

[@massimiliano1588]

the comment I was looking for

[@robbjr7879]

Nursing education replaced patient with client a few years ago. It was felt that patient reflected the old paternalistic style of healthcare whereas client is a more bidirectional relationship for the person who is receiving healthcare services. I don't entirely agree with it but that was the rationale. I still think patient is the better term for inpatient care.

[@northofmainstreet7281]

Because it's a business and businesses are about selling products to you, the "client". Unless you're the person selling it.

[@gabrieleamato9347]

capitalism i guess

[@hermestrismegistus5296]

Elsevier considers "patients" as their clients. Because, they are doing business for their own profit not for your benefit, remember it.

[@manikandan1111]

why are you referring the patients as "clients"?

[@cute-little-catto]

Client is usually addressed when a person is outpatient. If the person is already confined in the hospital, it is usually refered to as patient.

[@mikeg5365]

Elsevier ! That’s why I never liked you
