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

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."sammy D." <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:20040401074725.04427.00000413@mb-
