why he's a dumbshit
seriously, when they prescribe you something, ask them ANYTHING else about the drug besides the name, what its prescribed for, and the dose its prescribed in
for shits and giggles, ask them the half-life of the drug, ask them about its route of excretion, its metabolism, ask them which enzyme metabolizes it, ask them about receptor affinity
the more you dig the scarier it gets, what the hell do doctors actually do??? in my humble opinion, unless you need penicillin or were mangled in a car accident, doctors are just taking your money. The real heroes are the doctors working in the ER, your general practioner is a crook
