And no one factors in the good bacteria from the bad, they just kill it all.

As a female, every time I was put on antibiotics I developed yeast infections. Finally found that taking 50 billion Probiotics multi strain, stopped it. Yogurt is a waste of money.

I listen to the ads on TV, and they pick and chose what they disclose. Nexium just went OTC at the 20 mg dose, what the ad leaves out is that long term use can lead to Bone Density issues, and Barrett’s Esophagus Nexium

Lyrica actually mimics the Fibromyalgia it is being touted for; and sex life good bye if you react to it along with the high weight gain like you get from being on Predisone to long. Besides it is highly addictive.

To the regret of many patients put on them. OP drugs are dangerous. They have a FDA warning doctors are ignoring. How many have to die of kidney failure, jaw degeneration and develop A FIB before they are removed from the market?

My PCP and ENDO are pushing for this crap. Foreto which reverses itself at the end of the treatment period. Already had a bad reaction to Fosamax sample. Made 5 days with terrible bone pain. Went in the trash. I chose to do Holistic s with Vitamins and minerals bones are made out of. Never heard of one of them killing patients. And with Bone Density test now MANDATED at every 2 yrs, same as PSA’s for men I won’t know how well it works until 2015.

Wow! You mean people will actually have to read the warning labels?

What a burden!

How unreasonable!

Of course, untreated reflux leads to erosion of the esophagus and the vomiting that comes with the reflux is not only bad for your teeth but leads to unbalanced electrolytes which can lead to death.
