Default Hi guys,

What I noticed with Drs. also they look in the book they have telling the side effects and not all of them are listed. When I took Vioxx the only side effect listed in my PA's book was stomach issues so he put me on prevacid for that.
Look at all of the law suits with Vioxx with heart attacks and strokes. I don't think the pharmaceutical companies are letting anyone know all of the side effects.

My Pharmacist puts a sheet of paper in my new prescriptions about the side effects. That sheet usually lists a lot of them but again not all.

I have researched my meds for years now since I had problems with the Vioxx.

Also, there are a lot of new meds and things being tried for RSD it seems. Moreso then other medical problems. The Drs. and Pharmacist can list all of the side effects but it still leaves us to decide if we want to chance taking the med or not.
