  1. Has anyone noticed that doctors give us medication, but
    don't seem to corelate our medication with our medical
    problems? Example. I was given a water pill for high blood
    pressure. I am allergic to sulphur drugs. I took the
    prescription to the pharmacy and they wouldn't fill it. I
    asked why. They said my pharmacy profile states i am
    allergic to sulphur drugs and the water pill has sulphur in
    it, and states that anyone with a history of allergic
    reactions should not take this drug. it could be fatal. He
    also said that although there are patients that take it with
    no problems with a history of allergy there is a great
    possibility that there will be a grave consequence. I told
    my doctor, and he said that he didn't know it had sulphur in
    it. Celebrex is the same way. We as patients rely upon our
    doctors to tell us about the meds that they give us, but the
    doctors i've experienced don't seem to know anything about
    the medication except what it is prescribed for. Thank God
    For Pharmacists.

  2. Now, why in Hell would you stay with a doctor who would
    negligently put your life at risk? That is something the
    doctor should check before writing the prescription.
