You know all meds have possible hazards. It is a well used drug and does work, but like all meds need to be properly screened and monitored. For example, if a person has kidney or liver problems, they can not take certain meds, and that is why blood work may need to be done before you can safely give certain meds.
I need to read that article when I have time to sort all out. I’m taking way to many scripts
The best advice I can give is to buy a book called “The PILL Book”.

If you spot one that is a year or two old) at a thrift store or Flea market GRAB it!
It is pretty dry reading, but if you look up the meds you are on, you will continue reading other stuff.
It will give you a leg up!
I was amazed how many meds (and coffee) can give you tinnitus, which can be torture for some who already suffer from itT
It will give you a good idea of what meds do, and why they are prescribed!
Look up the over the counter stuff too!
