Yeah gotta love those ads that are for meds that treat things like depression. BUT! They give you side effects like: diarreah, irritable bowels, nausea, vomiting, decreased sexual drive, sexual dysfunction, fatigue, headaches, and should not be used by pregnant women. Sounds like the cure is worse than the problem.

Exactly!

More side effects than the problem you came in with

Those are possible side effects, not given side effects... Usually if you have any of those ill effects they will give you something different. I know this speaking as someone who is on three different mental stability medications

Everyone's physiology is slightly different, and because drugs work very specifically, the difference in physiology is enough to make levels toxic/ineffective/random in various people.

Interestingly enough, if a drug doesn't work specifically enough, then a whole lot of people are gonna feel side-effects. Mainly because not all biochemical pathways are understood/known and so a drug could inadvertantly be affecting a pathway that no one knows about...

Plus, if the drug companies don't give a warning, and something happens to someone, there's a lawsuit waiting to happen.

Now back to the Toronto discussion..

I miss home. I'll be back for three weeks in August, and I *can't* wait. Cambridge sucks more than downtown Boston.. ugh. It smells like urine out here, and the only time it doesn't stink is when it's too cold to smell anything.

Maybe we should plan another Canadian LAN, Atheist!

Atheist · 04-27-2003, 09:01 PM

Oh, I'm so down with that.

Carry some Lysol spray around with you
