In this episode of the PrimeRx Podcast, David Kirkus breaks down one of the most pressing challenges facing today’s pharmacy industry—pharmaceutical tariffs. With increasing trade tensions and new policies taking shape, pharmacies across the country are bracing for the potential ripple effects on drug pricing, supply chain stability, and patient access.
David unpacks how tariffs on imported Active Pharmaceutical Ingredients (APIs) and finished medications—especially from countries like China and India—are creating vulnerabilities in a system already strained by global disruptions. Listeners will gain a practical understanding of how these policies could impact everything from acquisition costs and pricing models to patient outcomes and inventory reliability.
The conversation also highlights regulatory and legislative responses, and what pharmacies can do now to prepare. From strategic sourcing to investing in automation and domestic partnerships, David offers clear-eyed guidance for navigating today’s trade turbulence.

Today’s episode dives into something that’s frankly underestimated and not talked about enough: women’s health. Not only are women underrepresented in clinical studies, but they’re frequently told that their suffering is either “normal” or “all in their head.” Or they’re prescribed a bunch of pharmaceuticals that haven’t been extensively studied in their bodies, especially for long-term effects. My guest today believes that when women’s health is optimized, they can GIVE 100% to their daily tasks and FIND MORE JOY in life. It's that simple. And women’s health is intimately connected to their hormones, emotions, and their menstrual cycles. So let's stop making menstrual health a taboo subject, and make it a priority instead.Dr. Robinson always felt a calling to help others in the area of health and wellness. At the age of 9, she was diagnosed with a rare autoimmune disease that was put into remission using conventional medicine. She never forgot the kindness shown by her doctors and wanted to ‘pay it forward’.This passion for health took her to the medical field. She graduated with a Doctor of Pharmacy degree from St. Louis College of Pharmacy in 2011 and began working for the U.S. Army as a pharmacist. Upon completing her time in the service, she began working for CVS pharmacy in 2017.In 2020, Dr. Robinson was introduced to the world of Functional Medicine. Within a few months, she achieved certification as a practitioner through Functional Medicine University, quit her job at CVS and branched out on her own. All this time, she recognized there were still some unresolved issues in her health. Using a holistic approach, she started doing the work, seeing results and helping others do the same. She currently owns a 1-on-1 practice where she inspires, educates and coaches women to the healthiest version of themselves.Connect with Nicole via:Email: drrobinson@wentzvillesynergyfm.com Website:Lucerna Functional MedicineFB:Lucerna Functional MedicineIG:@drrfunctionalmedLinked In: Nicole (Mennemeier) RobinsonLink to my "No More Period Pain" guide- https://www.canva.com/design/DAGb0yGxWiE/K4Pv-SGOo-rHHDs_koyyEw/view?utm_content=DAGb0yGxWiE&utm_campaign=designshare&utm_medium=link2&utm_source=uniquelinks&utlId=h3d0149e26b
