Working in a pharmacy I would often experience the issues of other people knowing someone was on prozac... The patients would whisper that they needed a refill on their prozac or hint around the issue of what they needed filled.  Embarrassed that someone they didn't even know would hear they are on prozac and judge them for that was just too much for them to handle.  And some would even hide it from their families.

How many of you know someone that takes drinking to the extreme....?  The question is how much his too much and does it depend on the person?  We have high school students out there beinge drinking because they just want to be like the guys in college.....  Why is this even an issue.  Guys and girls in college should be there to learn NOT party!  It is an educational institution isn't it?

After seeing and living a life full of dishonesty I have come to one simple question... Does everyone just sleep with who ever just because they want to?  Is the person they've said to have committed their lives to not as important as they say?  Do they just want to hurt them on purpose or too much of a coward to speak up and tell them the've found someone else, oh and by the way they just want a one month stand from this other person because they love the other person sooooo much.

A guy came into the pharmacy with a wacked out story of how he was hunting in a forest and he had shorts on and a crab crawled up his leg and that's how he got crabs..

He was in his 60's and  his wife was behind him, believing the story!!!

Ewww.    Now she's gonna get them too....

Point to the story:

 Stay away from people with crabs no matter how innocent they make the story sound!!!

Because the company that manuf. the populair antibiotic TEQUIN has ignored FDA warnings to include a warning with their drug about diabetic and elderly patient warnings the FDA is pulling the drug from U.S. shelves. 

Lesson Learned????

What else could companies be hiding?

I am going to predict that in 10 to 15 years they will have discovered a way for computer's to read people's thoughts.  If they can pick up brain waves then just imagine the possibilities!

What do you think will happen within the next 10-15 years??????????

There are 2 new investigational drugs out that are benzodiazepine derivatives.    They are:

Clobazam-

                    Antianxiety and anticonvulsant properties similar to diazepam.  Adult dose = 20-30 mg/day

Nitrazepam-

                    Widely used in Europe and Canada for Many years.  Used as sedative/hypnotic in doses of 2.5-10 mg

There is an investigational drug that is non-narcotic angalgesic...  Says it's 3 x as potent as codeine, up to 2x as potent as demerol, and approximately 10 times a potent as tylenol.

It's called Flupirtine...... I would say if it's as strong as they say it is it will be a controlled drug within a month that it's FDA approved.
