Is a wonderful way to end the day by listening to current and relevant treatment information, base on different reviews of RCT’s.

A Mental Health Pharmacist’s Take

I really enjoy this podcast. As a Pharmacist Practitioner, I really enjoy having this available and listen to the podcast regularly. I also tend to send episodes to the Pharmacy Practice Residents on rotation with me. I only give the podcast a 4 out of 5 because pharmacists don’t appear to receive ACPE credit for listening…although the majority of these are great for pharmacists continuing education. Hopefully that can be updated especially for those PharmDs who require more CE credits for maintaining their board certification.

Wonderful tool as a clinician!

Each day on my drive to work I listen to this podcast and I learn a lot from the expertise of the speakers. The episodes are current, relevant, short, and not too overwhelming!

Helpful, Clear and Concise

I enjoy learning through Psychopharmacology Institute ‘s programs!
Laura Lilli

Super helpful and a quick listen!

As a PMHNP student, this podcast has been so helpful for learning and reinforcing psychopharmacology! I appreciate that each episode is a quick listen and a variety of topics are covered.

Mostly Fluff & Filler

Podcast has very little substance. It’s mostly fluff and filler. Hosts and guests are poor speakers, very boring and often quite hard to understand. This podcast will be of minimal benefit to anyone.

Found this while on rotation

Wonderful, brief and thoughtful podcast. Felt like I discovered a gem with this one. Please keep up the good work.

Great for clinicians!

Awesome listen on the way to work, gets the mind going in short segments and adds new ideas while I’m actively seeing patients.
