I wonder whats gonna happen to people that take these drugs ten years from now. Lipitor made me very sick. I was on it for about four years . Started having muscle pain and other problems. I'll take my chances without the use of this medication. I bet your gonna see a increase in cancer patients.

And just nursing home patients. These drugs kill brain cells too. More "alzheimers" patients.
Take stock in long term care facilities....I think we are going to be seeing a lot more of them being built to accomodate the 50+ age folks damaged by these great "preventative" meds.
Just say NO to your drug pusher drs.
We need to send a message to our Drs....we don't trust this crap...there have been too many VIOXX incidents...and more to come (fosamax, lipitor, zoloft, etc.)
Hmmm, practice what we preach to our kids...just say no?

My husband's life has been destroyed by Lipitor. To me, these prescriptions are tantamount to attempted manslaughter. When will people realise their doctors are no longer to be trusted.

my husband is on lipitor had a quad bypass last
year and he is worse after the surgery than before
I wonder is it possible that this drug is causing him to have no energy to even walk around the block when he would walk 3 or 4 miles a day without a problem.

REALLY read this site. You'll be flushing these poisions down the toilet faster than you can say "big scam".

Our doctors have sold out to the flashy sales techniques of the big pharmas. It is sad and scary and how many more folks will suffer or die before it ends??

Daily Horoscope for June 19

Aries

Your boredom threshold is lower than usual this today so don't be surprised if you start to feel restless. Ideally, you should alter your usual routine and do something totally different, because that will certainly keep you interested in what's going on around you. Watch out if you decide to spend money because you might part with a lot more than you intended.
