OK then fine, however, if the stupid dr doesn't know then he should just say he does not know. He should not just tell her to stop taking the supplement because he doesn't wanna look it up or does not know.

It's blatant lack of knowledge or care to just say stop taking it without reason.

Yes. I have an attitude about doctors.

And I agree, it IS the patients responsibility to know, especially since the doctors DONT. That is the real problem here, the patient DID know.

I am not irritated that he didn't know what benfotiamine is, I am irritated that he just told her to stop taking it, no explanation, no reason given, other than he didn't know what it is.
