Having problems with message search?
Corrected First Line:
Further important key issue-input from Dr. Caras' Internet IRIS list (here in form of a reported poll):
[LDMF Sidebar comment]: As we know too many have too few resources to "exercise" prescription medicine.
Please post if you have thoughts on the reported (source="Segal") view expressed below that "Prescription noncompliance may not be negatively affecting the health status of patients..."
E.g. in your experience, are OTC (over the counter) medications equally effective? And how can comparisons be made? Etc.., any thoughts stimulated.
And sending all warm New Years best wishes, :) LDMF.
