In Ontario, Canada, we totally use intramuscular injections of artificial ergonovine to stop postpartum bleeding.
It has to be refrigerated, so for home births we send it in advance to put in peoples fridges. I have seen it used once, and it is an incredibly potent vasoconstrictor (used as a backup after oxytocin appears ineffective). The lady's entire leg started violently shaking for like 30 seconds but then stopped, and it worked just fine to get the bleeding down. It can't be given through an IV because it will cause the veins of the entire arm to constrict and prevent the medication from getting to the uterus where it is needed. It is useful to have different kinds of medicines available because different people will have different numbers of receptors in their bodies, so if oxytocin isn't doing the job then you try a drug that uses a different pathway. All of them cause calcium release in muscle cells, which causes muscle to contract tightly (which is what the uterus needs to do to stem the bleeding from the dinner-plate sized field of exposed blood vessels that suddenly appears when the placenta is shed).
Are there better drugs for stopping postpartum bleeding? Ergonovine is more powerful than most of the others, but it also has strong side effects. The benefits of using the drug must exceed the risks, and most postpartum bleeding can be controlled by weaker drugs with fewer side effects. Still, there is a time and place to bring out the big guns!

My first - and worst - trip was 25i. It was a convluence of suboptimal factors. I was homeless, couchsurfing at the time so the environment was off, I was alone, listening to music, and I took entirely too much. I was young and knew nothing, really. I had school the next day and ended up going to school still tripping and EVERYONE knew, somebody I didn't even know came up to me and told me they were disappointed in me. I had to have an ex girlfriend exfiltrate me from the campus. She brought me back to her place and punished me by making me watch The Aristocats until the come down, which was suitably rough. I was passed out for twelve hours afterwards. The rest of my explorations were gravy, even the time some folks tried to rob me in a Howard Johnsons and after I had to flee from a perceived police dragnet - one of the times I had the pleasure of taking legitimate LSD and I felt like Fry after drinking 100 cups of coffee, I handled that situation gracefully when otherwise sober I'd have probably botched it. Fun times, glad I survived.

there was a lot of 'cid at my high school in the late '90s early '00s. It was so cheap and awesome. especially when we went to the ren. fair and peaked in the hay maze.

That’s interesting because the name Chewbacca comes from собака, meaning dog.

Wook comes from Wookie, the kind of creature that Chewbacca is in Star Wars. It's a play on the fact that wooks usually have white person dreads that remind one of the full-body hair of Wookies.

Refreshing. I hadn't learned a new thing about acid in maybe 10 years. It was really nice to hear something I thought was true, not be. I'd say 3 or 4 of my favorite, on-my-death-bed-memories were times on paper or gelatin.

Thank you so much! I'm pretty much a lifelong teetotaler, as much from lack of opportunity and AHDH new thing hard as anything else, so it was super interesting to get both the history of the drug (what a short history comparatively!) and use notes!
I don't think psychedelics are for me, if nothing else for the body horror potential, but if I run across someone in the library high on this stuff now I know for sure they're basically harmless.

So is this one of their poison pill episodes? I seem to remember "Episodes that will get us cancelled or will end the podcast" being a bit a long time ago. LSD seems like something that'd get Youtube to freak out if nothing else. IDK acid was fun, please make sure you do things in the right set and setting (and not the day after cross country travel, like I did in my younger days).

Aww. Nova’s riffing on MK-ULTRA for this episode would have been hilarious. This is obviously why Milkshake tried to disrupt the recording.

Ok so one time me and 10 people on acid destroyed a home I can't go into detail but it was a mock construction for something and the entire time you would just hear a crash and someone yell "that's not up to code". We smashed the bay window and then destroyed the frame it was hilarious.

Multiple Myeloma is now a labeled use for thalidomide (in the USA, I don't know about elsewhere)! It's also used off-label for a variety of other things, mostly autoimmune conditions. There's a prescribing program that among other things requires pregnancy testing every 2 to 4 weeks and use of 2 contraceptives from a list of methods considered effective or highly effective if there's any possibility at all that you could become pregnant. It's pretty similar to the Accutane prescribing program which I think more people probably have experience with.

If you do a thalidomide episode, be sure to look into the more recent uses for it. My mother took it in ~2000 as part of a clinical trial for cancer treatment.

Not like anyone is using this (extremely cool and fun) podcast for identification, but definitely distressing to note that the third result in Google for the poisonous "Amanita muscaria" is not a real image!
