Which brings up a good point. Are these true allergies or adverse reactions?

I haven't been on many of the medications you folks have listed so I wonder if that is part of it. The more you try the more likely you will find some that you can't tolerate. The only thing I have a problem with so far is Codeine and it is an adverse reaction, n/v for hours, but not a true allergy.

Of course if we genotyped everyone medications that react or don't react to certain enzymes in our bodies could narrow down the ones that are likely to either not work for us or cause problems. Something to think about for those that are sensitive to many things although I believe it is an out of pocket expense it might be worth it.
