Okay - I think we've all seen the ads for drugs on TV - the ones that will help with RA or Psoriasis - or other conditions. After announcing what they will do for you - they give you a litany of the damages they can cause you, often times including cancer or death. The trade-off always strikes me as a bit too severe.

Okay - and I think we've all seen the ads by lawyers for "bad drugs" telling us that certain drugs have cause many problems and diseases - some of those being cancer and death.

We can get these drugs fairly easily by merely obtaining a prescription from a physician.

BUT - I bought some antihistamines at the drug store the other day and i had to sign a special form that is submitted to the government for people who buy antihistamines. Apparently an ingredient in antihistamines is used to make drugs that are dangerous for us.

Shouldn't the government be taking the drugs that are prescribed for us - a bit more seriously? The selective attitude, on the part of the government, is a little confusing and I suppose one has to follow the money to figure this one out. I just find this to be a bit curious.
