In this podcast, James Cave (Editor-in-Chief) and David Phizackerley (Deputy Editor) provide an overview of the July issue of DTB. The editors catch up on developments with proposals for all doctors in the UK to provide financial and non-financial declarations of interest. They discuss the problem of boron in chloramphenicol eye drop products and the impact on treating children aged under 2 years (https://dtb.bmj.com/content/59/7/98). The editors also talk about PPIs for persistent throat symptoms (https://dtb.bmj.com/content/59/7/102), the dose of folic acid for use with methotrexate (https://dtb.bmj.com/content/59/7/103) and a case of a patient who developed severe hypophosphataemia with an oral bisphosphonate (https://dtb.bmj.com/content/59/7/107).
