I just came from this site in regards to unsafe products/devices. I was extremely surprised by a few items on the list. One of the items that caught my attention immediately was Motrin (or Ibuprofen). Did you know that Ibuprofen / Motrin can cause skin allergies, heart failure, swelling and ulcers? I sear, sometimes the drug itself has so many side affects that you have to ask yourself — is it really worth taking?
I can honestly say that I have never met anyone who has had a diverse reaction to a drug (over the counter, prescription, or otherwise). I would say that if I had met someone who had an adverse reaction, I would advise them to see their doctor about it right away! Allergic reactions and other kinds of incompatibilities with prescription or over the counter drugs need to be reported so that those who make the drugs can either fix the problem or take the drug off of the market.
I would say that the site linked above is a helpful resource in finding drugs that are unsafe for you or your loved ones. Moving forward, you should know that knowledge is power! The more you know, the more you may be able to help someone else.
Have you had any side affects caused by any of the drugs listed?
