drugs discussed here. I do know that doctors (those who didn't get their degree from a matchbook) aren't prescribing the stuff. I'll have to assume that's for a reason.
For me, I'll take Nancy's advice. My own advice is to not read the PDR, unless you are a medical professional or have some other good reason. If one were to check it for every drug prescribed, they'd be terrified. I have an old one bought at a household sale.....makes a great doorstop but if I were to look up some of the anti-convulsants, I take, I'd probably want to kill myself.
Keep well, everyone. Charlie S
