I won't take such advice from an alledged pharmacist from Kaduna!

He's unqualified to make such claims.

Enter a modern Western hospital and its common to see a fruit bowl beside the patients bed.

He may be right!

From experience, Doctors and Hospitals advises you take your multivitamins and supplements only after you have completed your malaria treatment! They advise against taking multivitamins/ supplements together with malaria treatment!

All drugs are poisons just the dose matters. You won't see doctors taking panadol because they know what caffein and acetaminophen can do. But instead of taking a rest, taking more sugar and water or electrolytes, the lay man grabs a pack of pain relievers at the slightest indication of dizziness or headache.

Drugs are not always needed except in cases where you desperately need to correct an anomaly in the body, and of course using whatever drug comes at a price.
So if you don't want to pay any price at all, take care of your body.

Fruits are good but some are not to be taken with some drugs. Is it too hard to stop eating your fruit until you're done with your medication?

Nice one from the man of honor!

Buy your drugs from registered pharmacies and gain the additional free drug and health information services from a pharmacist. Buying from pharmacies also guarantees you're buying the original and intact drug molecule and not fake and substandard drugs.

You'll also be guided on proper dosing, dosing interval and dose duration. The benefit of having a pharmacist attend to your drug needs are innumerable!

Stop patronizing quacks!!!!

For the milk part I can say it’s true. I hate drugs with passion. I rather take injections than drugs but this particular one demanded I take it orally. So I would use a glass of milk to washed the bitter drug down.

Time for checkup came and my doctor couldn’t detect any significant improvement. He asked me if I took the complete dosage cos he knows how much I hated drugs.

I replied with a half smile that yes I did, with a glass of milk. grin

He said no wonder!!! And put me on another round of antibiotics angry

He said I should use plain water only and never use milk, it interferes with some certain drugs .Gosh I hate drugs and the damn smell.

Wait until you get pregnant tongue

Prenatal drugs you've got to take every single day and you keep hearing talks like "your baby needs those drugs to develop"

Guilty conscience wont allow you sleep every single night until you swallow the drugs cheesy
