And now the heartbeat updates with Dr j. Go Hagan sponsored by Baptist Health Heart Institute nothing like it when a plan comes all together Dr Jay go hit the Baptist Health heart beat up to Good morning to you sir how you doing today I'm just glad the morning is as smooth as it can be to I know it's like smooth as being up in might as well be ice out there Bruno Mars would say smoother than a fresh jar skipping and waiting for a chance to see them for a long time all right hey it's the whole idea of this recall of blood pressure medication and I guess the 1st one happened I guess sometime late last year and now there's another story out about this too so I would imagine that people are probably concerned about that you know there is a little bit of panic setting in and this is something we're getting asked about frequently in the office we're getting phone calls I'm getting stopped to church I'm getting stopped by friends just that I run into and part of the problem is that this was one of the major classes of blood pressure medicines that we use and also the medicines that are affected are major generic versions that are on most people's formularies and so we're getting some problems where on the one hand folks are panicking a little bit they're hearing things they're reading things on Facebook or other social media sites and they are. Are taking it upon themselves to take action without consulting their doctor then we've also got some issues of availability and so the drug got recalled back in the in the summer it started it was a limited lot then it expanded part of the problem is that most of our medicines are made in China and this effected one major manufacturing company over there and then for most people that was one of their main medicines we changed them to a drug called herb a certain and that one has now had some recalls and even an older one called Losartan And so for the vast majority of patients I see those 3 medicines are the ones that are in that class that are on their formularies there are certainly others in that class but they become more expensive and so we are in a bit of a bind I've had to give patients written scripts and say hey start going to different pharmacy find this and what we want to reiterate to people is the drugs themselves are fine it is not a problem with the medication there are some contaminants that are we think by products of a chemical processes that are getting into the pill so I tell patients it's sort of like if you went to the grocery store and there was no salad on the shelves it's not because salad is bad for you it's because salmonella or something else got into the packaging and got onto the salad and so we don't want to tell people don't eat salad we want to say don't eat this salad and so it's the same thing with these medicines so if you have not been notified or if you have picked up a new prescription from your pharmacy then your medication is as safe as we can possibly make it if we suddenly give you a prescription and now you can get this when you couldn't it's Ok because they are getting all of this straightened out but the one thing you never want to do is simply stop a medicine without talking to your physician because of something that you heard that you're worried about dodging go hit in the Baptist Health heart beat update on Newsradio 2.9 Taheri and you mentioned something there that a. A lot of drugs are made in China I guess I don't know where I thought drugs were made I guess I shouldn't be surprised about that but for some reason I am so how many drugs all the drugs are getting are made in China or is that what's the story there you know in researching this some of the estimates are as much as 60 percent of our medicine going on it's been going on for several years and it's kind of parallels every other manufacturing thing and they can be made cheaper over there and so we want cheaper medicine can be made cheaper there so that's where it's made now we can talk all day about whether those things are true or whether they are the right thing to do but that is the reality that we live in well is that really contaminants get in it isn't it isn't it and it doesn't seem to be due negligence or malicious intent it is simply that you know as you can imagine these are these these are practical chemistry experiments you know they are they are manufacturing things from natural raw materials and there are reactions that occur and there are byproducts of those reactions and some of them go away and some stay and and also you know it is not uncommon that we suddenly come up with oh these new substances are on the possibly cancer causing substances list you know this happens you know all the time where suddenly something that we've used a lot that we've never thought about they say hey maybe this can cause cancer and so we want to get it out of there one estimate is that if every person took the highest dose of l. Certain for 4 years you would get about one case out of 8000 of cancer whereas one in 3 people in the United States are going to be diagnosed with cancer so it's an incredibly small chance it's just that any time that that chance is not 0 we want to try to eliminate it not to go hit in the Baptist Health heart beat update News Radio 102.9. Ok say that I take one of these medicines and I'm aware of that but how do I know if it's been recalled or not or do I just assume that it has been so always tell people the 1st thing to do if your concern. About you should call your pharmacy you know call the pharmacy or take the bottle and if you want to do that they can look it up quickly and easily for you if you are an internet savvy person you can go to the f.d.a. As website they have a thing that is very prominently displayed there that lets you check in you can pull it up by the lot number on your medication and it will tell you and so these are really the 2 easiest ways to do it is to check with your pharmacy where you got the medicine or if it's a mail order you can call them or go online to the f.d.a. S. Website and look and see and these things are they're not trying to hide it it's pretty simple that it's there and then if you need a replacement or other. Things that are concerning you then you call your doctor right Dr Joe Hagan the Baptist Health heart beat up to Newsradio one of 2.9 Taylor and got to 102 I mean as far as drug interactions too I mean are there things that they found out that will you take along with these b.p. Medications that can cause issues to or you know from this standpoint not really you know they're always chances for drug interactions and those are things that almost every doctor's office now has a computer system and people are well aware of this from hearing many of us complain about them at times but one of the things that they do is they automatically check for interactions the other things your pharmacy does is that it automatically checks for interactions so it is relatively uncommon as long as everyone is aware of everything you're taking in so that's really where the only danger comes in is that if you are taking something that either your doctor or your pharmacy isn't aware of because you've got it somewhere else then that's where most of the problems occur or if you've got an old medicine that's hanging around and someone has had you stop it but you didn't throw it away and then one day you decide to take that because you're playing doctor yourself then that can be a problem but generally speaking most active prescriptions are done by your physician who knows your history and that is filled in your pharmacy are going to be reasonably free of interactions because of all of the safety checks that are in place. Not to go he going to have to tell her beat up Dave thanks so much for that insight will probably all right 816 Newsradio 102.9 Karen a look at our traffic now with having Williams.

Where it turns out they were not hydrocodone and see them in a for me they were laxatives. And that's perfect as how you found it sounds like the roommate was expecting this to happen maybe though it's kind of like your original lunch in the break room you know somebody keep stealing your Liang rig and I'm not condoning that by the by the way anyway. What is his roommate called the cops about it Peter admitted that he took the pills he says he threw the rest away when he realized there was something besides what they thought they were anyway he's been charged with theft so you know I always like the stupid criminal story was always 120 Newsradio 102.9 k.

Good morning thank you for being on or at the government shutdown over at least temporarily I want to get your thoughts on what has taken place and what does the what do you got for me well you know we've got 21 days in the sense that I or the president I think will probably take action . They need over the weekend if he would just whatever necessary to order I think that's pretty strong and know that. I think given all the see every opportunity and the table and and why that's important because obviously he said majority leader the Speaker of the House the minority leader in the Senate is just as much in the midst of it this is going to deliver you votes on his side and you can't do anything. So I mean it's it's you know we've turned it needs to close and that's a that's. Not without help from the church you know Congressman Rick Crawford Newsradio one of 2.9 Kayran with the shutdown and Democrats are saying they are for border security like it they just don't agree with the whole idea of the wall is there are the potential the we could see compromise between a wall maybe a wall in some spots and maybe more border security including a fence is it a barrier in some places and this is one of those on the get go you know I'm hopeful that their memories will just work. You know the terms it has voted. On and. Under the Obama administration what we're seeing right now in Washington. The Democrats in Washington don't want to be giving any kind of perception that they will allow for president any kind on this matter if it's national security. Which they voted for multiple times multiple occasions but for some reason they would rather. Do it taking into the president and they. Recognize for better security it's been going on long enough most of. Them now and I think they're talking about border security since I got there and quite frankly it is the single biggest issue over the 8 years that I've been. Hearing impression. Things are going to help keep. That national. Important but the closer we get fired immigration. Congressman Rick Robert on Newsradio one of $2.00 Kayran Congressman the shutdown started prior to the Democrats taking over in the House the president handled this whole thing in the right way could the shutdown have been avoided and this is where we are do the box himself in on this I think the shutdown could have been avoided by. Understanding that there's nothing in the Constitution ever wears a 60 vote in the Senate. And it claims to another. 88 from that. We have the majority in the house we delivered the bill the intraparty said we didn't have the votes. To deliver that to this and even they couldn't. Make you need to rethink the whole. We're talking about it. And as a result the government ended up shutting down so. I just think that you know it toward an instant clinging to this you know. That to most Americans makes no sense at all there's lots to talk about their congressman Rick Crawford News Radio want to point 9 Tehran but what I want to focus on I think that's most important is to stay local as the things that are going on in Washington that you're seeing in your office right now that are focusing on Arkansas because I mean the government shutdown takes the headlines what's happening in your office how are things affecting our state. Well we have over the course of this show down the track in our callers and in my district roughly 80 to 81 percent are saying essentially build a wall make sure that you know whole fence or security. As time goes on we also got cold. Things like us. That were starting to have an impact you know to the need to be conflated and they are we were having I think that federal employees tell me flat out look you need to stay strong or. You know what's most important to fix. This was kind of from Arkansas everyone recognized national security but also obviously they want to they want to do not want to go back to work and some who are here. At the same time it's impacting people 'd who are doing everything we can to address that but what people understand that the 2 are not single that the same issues are 2 separate issues I think the media have translated those to such a degree that it's as if we couldn't open the border and open the government and have. Not only should we can we but we should. Congressman Rick Crawford News Radio 2.9 k.

Our end yesterday was the 19th anniversary of the New England Patriots hiring Bill Belichick way from the New York Jets and a lot of n.f.l. Experts of the time said that the Patriots were at that there is a syndicated columnist I don't never read the article but I have to go back and look at it even O'Connor especially famous for this he argued that Bob Kraft while his gamble has nothing to do with ends and safeties and everything to do with a middle aged mess he hired to coach them obviously if you know Bill Belichick I mean he very well may be the or one of the best of all time just based on his record and another may also for the fact that he drafted a guy that nobody really knew that much Tom Brady in the 6th around 9 Super Bowls in 1000 years they won 5 of those you can make it 6 this weekend if it all goes together Belichick has 30 wins in the playoffs 10 more than any other coach in history and the Patriots haven't had a losing season since the year 2000 that was Bill's 1st year and that year Brady was the backup quarterback So you think maybe there's some success there I think so maybe some of the people that were predicting go wrong you go back and look at some of those predictions it's kind of interesting it's 850 your tech update Kim commando now.
