Managing Breathlessness Part 2

In this 10 minute teaching session learn about using drugs safely to manage the symptom of difficulty in breathing. The conversation covers palliation at the end of life but also discusses whether the same drugs can be used for breathless patients who are not dying. Interesting fact we forgot to mention in the episode: 0.5mg of lorazepam is equivalent to 2.5mg of midazolam.
