thanks for that excellent info mrsD!

It adds to the growing list of info and articles that I have on this disturbing subject, and reinforces the need for people to be diligent in researching things for themselves before simply accepting that just because something is FDA approved, that does not automatically mean it is safe or good for us!

ps note to everyone...please dont interpret my post as meaning i am "anti-drug" or saying that all drugs are unsafe....what I am saying is that we need to check out for ourselves what the potential side effects could be and make educated decisions. I know many people owe their lives to pharmaceuticals and so realise the vital importance of medications
