The high-risk medication list (practical medical education)
Hello students!
I'm working on updating another educational resource that I thought you all might find helpful: The list of high-risk medications to be carefully prescribed and/or monitored (and why).
I remember looking for a list like this when I was a student about to graduate but couldn't find one. Please let me know what you think and if there's anything else you think should be added.

PS - I couldn't figure out how to upload a PDF to imgur like I normally do, so I think I'm stuck with dropbox, sorry!
Here is the list condensed just to the names for those who don't want to see the explanations:
-Tramadol.
-Flouroquinolones.
-TMP-Sulfa.
-Gabapentinoids.
-Glucocorticoids.
-Diphenhydramine
-Potassium-raising medications.
-Amiodarone.
-Warfarin.
-Digoxin.
-Benzos
-TCAs.
-1st gen antipsychotics.
-1st gen antiepileptics.
-Immunosuppressants and biologics.
-Immune checkpoint inhibitors.
PPS-- I'm well aware this is a subjective and controversial list, but before you comment a disagreement please at least read my explanations first -- I include many caveats.
