Lightbulb things to avoid RX...

Statin drugs for cholesterol-- all brands

Flagyl (metronidazole) antibiotic

Fluoroquinolones (unless life threatening condition) Cipro, Levaquin and Avelox

These are the most common... the 3 biggies!
But lists vary on the net..

Here is one:
http://www.nlm.nih.gov/medlineplus/e...cle/000700.htm

One may HAVE to take a drug that is problematic. In that case benefit vs risk has to be evaluated. You may have pneumonia or a septicemia, or mrsa or other severe infection (in the jaw for example or peritonitis).

In some cases pretreatment with acetyl carnitine may reduce the PN potential for HIV drugs and chemo.

For Fluoroquinolones Vit E is suggested.

I think avoidance of alcohol for some people is important. But it may not be a 100% causative issue for others.
Also avoid MSG and other glutamates in food and supplements.
Avoid aspartate (supplements and Nutrasweet)
Avoid refined sugars and high fructose corn syrup
Stop smoking
Avoid inhalants and solvents, paint strippers, formaldehyde, pesticides in gardening/farming.

If you drink well water, have it tested periodically for heavy metals including arsenic. Do not breathe fumes from pressure treated wood, or burn it.

These are some of the most common causes. I can't think of any others at this time... if more "come to me" I'll post them.
