I went to the doctor's office last week to get some help for a cough that won't quite go away. Walked out with about five different medicines - I would rattle if you shook me after a meal this week! I am not sure I am doing the right thing putting all these chemical substances into my already weak system.
My wife used to work as a pharmacy technician and she said the pharmacists were always complaining about how doctors in the community over-prescribe medications - especially antibiotics. She said over the years the public has come to expect to walk out the door with a prescription to fix all their problems and since the doctors are getting kickbacks from pharmaceutical companies anyway, they are happy to oblige.
Five medications for one cough? That's going a bit overboard in my opinion. I would look into the option of not taking all five. I seriously doubt that you really need all of them.
Money be thy God of greed,
Insurance companies, doctors conspire indeed.
Schools do too, our children enslare,
Medicating not educating, they're offensive, the worst.
Friends, beware, don't walk this baneful path.
People shouldn't be afraid of their government. Governments should be afraid of their people.
