A few more:
Treatment for Alzheimer's? (Anticholinesterases and nicotinic agonists: Donepezil, Galantamine, Rivastigmine; NMDA blocker: Memantine)
"Galant Dona with Alzheimers lives on the river; Me-man says "
Side effect of rivastigmine (severe nausea and vomitting that can result in perforation of esophagus)
"Get severely sea-sick traveling up the river"
Side effects of tacrine, another anticholinesterase (hepatotoxicity and decreased PMNs)
"If you get a tac in your liver, not even PMNs can help"
Best treatment of glaucoma: (Beta blockers Timolol and Betaxolol)
"Tim's glaucoma has made him beta"
Other treatments for glaucoma (alpha 2 agonist Brimonidine; adrenergic epinephrine and dipivefrin)
"We can try to make Tim more alpha by agonizing him to the brim and giving him a dip of epinephrine"
I know. horrible. Now you can start to fear for my future patients.
