Chemical2:
Totally fine to take drugs with cold water. Even better depending on the structure of the active pharmaceutical ingredients (API). Some API-containing ester functional groups will hydrolysis (breaking down of the esters) in warm/hot water thereby reducing the dosage even before the drug gets the chance to be acted on by stomach fluids. Some drugs are also pro-drugs that are meant to form the active API inside the stomach, taking those with hot water may break down the pro-drug thereby forming the active API before getting to the stomach.
Who takes medicine with Hot water Professor? Room temperature water is not hot water.

On the long run, the entire world would feel the enormous impact of this war. This isn't Iraq or the gulf. As it stands now, every country is dealing with shortage or hike of petrol costs. Sri Lanka has no food now. China is taking their lands. China now controls their ports and is building an island on their shorelines because they cannot repay their loans.

Nigeria owes China years of Petrol proceeds. And, Buhari keeps on borrowing from China. All these deals mean that in the event of a failure to repay, China could end of possessing our ports or oil blocks for nothing less than 90 years. Which means even our kids will slave for Chinese masters

Yen yen yen NATO held military drills with Ukraine on her soil September 20 2021 that didn't stop Russia from bombing them . If they like let all NATO forces be in Taiwan . Let Taiwan just make it official that's what I'm saying not doing backyard feedom let them make known to the world that there's nothing like one china policy let's see what will happen all the NATO tanks will be left for Taiwan to carry her cross just like what's happening In Ukraine.
Eyaaaah! Kpele. So you don't know that Taiwan, the governing party and Taiwan President has declared on various fora that they are an independent country? I don't know how you want them to prove to you that they are an independent country already!

Because they failed to yield to their demand .
Let Taiwan make it official Like Hongkong wanted to do let's check something.
I'll save your monkier and message when Taiwan is invaded if they try to separate from china and your NATO will not do NADA. It's a bet let's wait and see it's just a matter of time .
Taiwan will continue to exist as Taiwan. Today, Taiwan is not under China. Tomorrow, Taiwan will not be under China. Next tomorrow, Taiwan will not be under China. Till thy Kingdom come, Taiwan will not be under China. They can wail and shout from now till tomorrow, Taiwan will continue to conduct it's business as an independent country and nothing China can do about it.

This is the Tiawan president confirming that there are US troops in Taiwan training Taiwan forces. Is that not what independent Nations do? They decide which country military should be in their country. China then vowed they will make Taiwan face the consequences. We are still waiting for Taiwan to face the consequences! grin.

In all you said you still contradicted yourself that they're still under one china policy but they're trying to be independent stylishly.
All am saying is that they should just break the agreement that there's nothing like one China policy . That's what I'm Asking for and that's what china wants, just say it . What happened in Ukraine will be pro Max to what will going to happen in Taiwan .

Ukraine was independent and romanced with NATO but the day they crossed the rubicon NATO couldn't save them . Exactly the same thing will happen to Taiwan . And again it's not only that has access to the internet . America complain the most about Russia and china . That's why most people see them as evil these countries just started using media to fight the west . When it comes to media propaganda you know who's the chief.
I think you should educate yourself about one China policy with emphasis on when and how it came into effect. You have been posting wrong information here and I have been trying my best to educate you. Like saying Hong Kong has a military or that China has a one China policy.

The bottom line of what I am saying is this: Taiwan is an independent country and continues to operate as so. While the US has the one China principle, in reality, they have been going against that principle for years.

Let me ask you a question. As Taiwan is today, is it under China? The answer is no. Does China want Taiwan to be under it? Yes. So what are they waiting for? That is why they always cry that they want reunification with Taiwan even if it will take force to do so. It is that force to achieve reunification with Taiwan that the US is waiting for. Let them use force to reunify with Taiwan let's see. If they are not going to do that, then they should keep quite.

Taiwan is
1. An independent country
2. Has never been under China rule

If China likes the status quo, why then did they try to reunify with Taiwan years ago (the Taiwan strait crisis)?. They tested the waters and found out that the US will not have any of that and they backed off.

Taiwan as it is today has a president, a military (Army, Navy, airforce), diplomatic relationship with some other countries, has it's own currency, legislature and Judiciary etc. Do you know the only country not happy with all of these? China! So they should do their worst! If they are not going to do their worst, then no need for this argument. Taiwan will continue to exist as an independent Nation. You claim another territory is part of you, but that territory operates as an independent country yet you can't bring that territory under your rule. You will bark and bark and bark, yet the country still operates as an independent Nation. Nor be juju be that? grin

They can also do their worst as the US continually challenges them in the south China Sea. If they can't do their worst, then the US and other countries will continue to sail their ships (military and commercial) in territories that China claim as it's own!

Ukraine have their own military sane as Hongkong and Taiwan but let Them tell the world they're no longer with the China mainland let's check something.

Ukraine has been receiving military aid from the United States for years Russia didn't attack until they wanted to join NATO which Russia has told them not too.

USA can give Military aid to Taiwan as they want but china still holds them with the Chinese one policy Government if they have two heads let them declare themselves independent.

USA cry foul most of the time. Whenever china is holding her drill close to china .
I'll still tell you again and again USA and NATO can't go to war with China because of Taiwan they'll be abandoned Like Ukraine .
Lol. Stop posting wrong information. Hong Kong doesn't have it's own military. Hong Kong is regarded as a special province under China. I repeat, Hong Kong doesn't have it's own military.

One of the major characteristics of a sovereign Nation is a standing military. Taiwan has it's own military. If it was really under China, it can never have it's own military. It will be like Lagos State having it's own military while still part of NIGERIA. The military is a major factor in determining which country is independent. Taiwan doesn't need to tell china that they are no longer with them because Taiwan has never been part of China. Unlike Hong Kong, Taiwan has never been ruled by China. They don't need to tell you or China that they are independent. They already are an independent state and they have all the characteristics of an independent state.

Lol. He said China still holds Taiwan with the one China policy. Na wa o grin grin. The one China policy is a US policy. It is a policy that the US uses to deceive China. Under the policy, the US recognises and has formal ties with China rather than the island of Taiwan. But in reality, the US has ties with Taiwan and even sells weapons to it. That is why you hear China from time to time appealing to the US to follow the one China policy and stop dealings with Taiwan.

He said the US cries when China holds drills close to Taiwan. On the contrary, it is China that always cry foul when US Navy ships and aircraft carriers sail through the Taiwan strait or south China Sea or when the US hold military drills with countries in the region like Japan and South Korea.

Read about the Taiwan strait crisis. Then you will know that it is the fear of what US will do to China that is why they have not attacked Taiwan! grin

Taiwan has it's own president, holds election to elect it's leaders, have a standing military, has diplomatic relationship with some countries. They are already Independent! Even more independent than Nigeria! grin

It’s a 50/50 possible result no victor no vanquish . Like I said earlIre US will do nada if China invades Taiwan they can only bark that’s how they barked that Russia will face this and that at the end nothing happened. Before the United state will kill 1.4 billion people I believe no soul will be left out in the USA.

USA speaks highly on media because they control it , the only way you’ll balance their strength is to watch their body language when they act towards their virals . Taiwan should declare independence let’s check something. China Russia relationship is for a reason .
I just told you how China was scared of the US attacking it during Trump. They had to quickly open backdoor diplomatic channels to ascertain if the US really wants to attack. They were jittery. The US patrols the south China Sea, which China claims as it's territory. The US deals with Taiwan and even sells weapons to them. What other provocation does China want before they act? Let them attack Taiwan, attack any US interest in the SCS or attack Countries in the region with defense treaties with the US. If they are not going to do any of these, then the US will continue to deal with Taiwan and patrol the SCS. China will only wail and cry for nothing!

Have you noticed that China is the one always crying when the US sends warships into the SCS or deals with Taiwan or when US officials visit Taiwan? China will continue to wail until it does it worst. grin

So, you are waiting for Taiwan to declare independence? Lol. Funny you. A country that has it's own president, parliament and Judiciary. A country that has diplomatic relations with some countries.. A country that has a standing military. A country that buys military weapons from the US. A country that has embassies and ambassadors in few counties. A country with it's own currency. They even sanctioned Russia for the Ukraine invasion and you are waiting for them to declare independence. Please, which other independence do you want them to declare again when they are already Independent?

And Russia is fighting NATO? Lol.

US-China war can't be a 50/50. The US has a upper hand. Even the Chinese Know this.

My point is that if China invade Taiwan, attack Countries they have territorial dispute with that also have defense treaties with the US (e.g Japan and Phillipines) or attack any US asset in the south China Sea, China will pay a heavy price.

China that was scared that the US will invade it as a pretext for Trump to remain in power when Trump was disputing the election. It took the General Mark Milley, the chief of army staff to reassure China that the US will not attack it.

America will never I repeat never go to war with China Or Russia because of Ukraine or Taiwan . What that guy said is truth . America is using neighboring countries Close to her adversaries as battle grounds . America fuel wars in disguise of democracy same thing they did in Libya, Syria Ukraine etc.

America is avoiding Russia but are pressuring Ukraine to protect their democracy against Russia and stand up to them . Why not advice them to dialogue and stay neutral just Like what they demanded from Cuba ?
So America needed to tell Ukrainians to defend their country before they will defend their country? Interesting!

America will never go to war with Russia because of Ukraine. Even before the invasion started, they said so and the reason being that Ukraine is not in NATO neither does it have any defense treaty with Ukriane. The best they can do is to supply Ukraine with weapons to defend itself, same way they did when Russia invaded Afghanistan. If Russia really wants to test the US resolve, it Should attack NATO countries in the region (e.g Poland).

Same thing with China. China has Territorial claims against Japan and phillipines and these are countries with defense treaty with the US. China should please attack these countries.
Another way to know if the US will go to war with China is if China attack any US military assets or commercial ship that passes through the south China Sea or they attack Taiwan. That's the only way to know if the US will respond. If they don't do any of these, we will never know what the US response will be like.

NATO fuelled fire and should be the one to extinguish it by stopping expansion and simply stating that Ukraine will never be a part of NATO to de-escalate the situation. Also, sanctions makes matters worse & will enrage Putin further. The idea is to de-escalate to save lives, not add fuel to fire. The U.S wants to prolong the war.

NATO obviously knew the consequences of their expansion and encircling Russia to threaten them. The U.S clearly provoked instability and chaos. While I’m against war, it’s important to understand the historical and geopolitical contexts that led to this in order to SAY NO TO THE PROVOCATION OF WAR and FOR WAR NOT TO REPEAT ITSELF. Putin sadly lost his patience after 15 years and took the U.S cunning bait.

It’s heart breaking Ukraine has been used by the U.S as a pawn and now cannon fodder to fight Russia on their behalf. The U.S has a track record of sponsoring colour revolutions/mayhem around the globe in the guise of democracy and a noble cause. The truth is they ONLY allow pro-American puppet regimes to exist. That’s the typical U.S imperialist playbook. Their greedy goal is money and global hegemony. Don’t forget they LIED in order to bomb Iraq and stole money and resources such as oil from the Middle East.

SADLY THE WINNERS ARE ALWAYS THE MILITARY INDUSTRIAL COMPLEX WHO PROFIT BILLIONS from the GLOBAL ARMS TRADE. That’s a POWERFUL MOTIVATION TO FUEL FIRE and PROVOKE AGGRESSION and INSTABILITY AROUND THE GLOBE. Military arms prices have soared lately.

The U.S administration is using the same bait towards China. It’s media echo chambers are spreading their smear campaign against China to gain public consent for potential war with China and will use Taiwan as their cannon fodder. The non stop demonisation of China and Chinese people have caused rising brazen and deadly attacks against people of Chinese ethnicity. These politicians and it’s mainstream media are toxic with their influence to spread hate and division. It’s ironic that the U.S proclaims to hail human rights when they blatantly lied to illegally invade and killed many innocent civilians for over a decade. How can people still trust them is beyond me. They sure are superior at packaging themselves as the heroes and packaging countries they hate as villains.
You made some points. Others were just conjectures, assumptions and here-say.

Please, how did the US use Ukraine as a cannon folder to fight to Russia? Was it the US that asked Ukraine to apply to join Nato? The US wants to prolong the war? How? Some of you will just make assumptions that are not reasonable.

China can't claim almost all of the South China Sea and you expect the US to close it's eyes. It's not possible. Allowing China to have it's way in the south China Sea will have serious implications for trade and US military assets in the region. Not to talk of the international Court ruling that was against China as it regards the South China Sea.

As for Taiwan, China shouldn't invade it. Invading Taiwan will draw US response.

So, you can see that peace in that region depends largely on China. China should obey the international Court ruling that says it can't claim almost all of the SCC and China shouldn't invade Taiwan. The Taiwan issue and the SCC are the major reasons the US may go to war with China.

If you were not a biased being, you would have known that the same way there is anti-china sentiment in US media is also the same way there is anti-America sentiment in Chinese media. And the anti-US sentiments in China is even worse because the govt has huge control over the media in China. You can always read some articles in the US media that speaks highly of China. But you can never find any article on Chinese media that says anything positive about the US.

Well I'm not generalizing and apart from my experiences and others who I know,I got my first hand knowledge about this issues through a foreign trained medical doctor.Again my dental history us almost same with many members of my immediate family so I have been wondering if it's a bloodline issue.My mom in particular has been in and out of dental clinics ALL HER LIFE.

To bust your bubbles,we have used both private and federal government dental clinics.I m not ruling out the fact that there ain't any good ones,my argument is that it's very rare.Again,we don't have those with such degree of specialty like you mentioned in equitable numbers ESPECIALLY in our government hospitals.I stopped using government hospital long time again,same with my brothers still, the issues are still recurring.Now,if there's an in-depth issue concerning this age long dental problems,we have not been able to tackle it up till date.First,there maybe some sort of relief,then after one or two tearsy,more problems generates.

All in all, I grasped loads of reasonable points in your posts.
Well, if you really want to get first hand information on Dental practice in Nigeria, a foreign trained Doctor is the last person to meet for such information. And it is not true that good dentists are rare in Nigeria.

I think your problem and that of your family members require the attention of a Specialist (a consultant), not just a Dentist/Dental surgeon. The unfortunate thing is that most Federal teaching hospital do not have enough Dental consultants or some just have few consultants in some specialties. It is only established teaching hospitals like UCH, OAUTH, UBTH and some few others that you will get specialists/consultants in all the fields of Dentistry. So, when next you visit your Dentist for a particular problem he has been managing without lasting solution, request he refer you to a specialist.

You may not be entirely correct about Longrich toothpaste not being medicinal. My older sis was having severe tooth discomfort, then someone recommended Longrich to her. After about a week of usage, the pains went away. I'm not in any way trying to promote the product( I don't use it anyways), but the OP can give it a try if it won't cost much
Your sister is only postponing the evil day. Once a tooth starts paining you, go see a Dentist. Toothpaste like longrich do not cure toothache. It may give temporary relief, but the pain will surely come back.

And no Dentist can recommend longrich for you. Longrich toothpaste doesn't contain flouride (which is a major ingredient in toothpaste that helps to prevent the teeth from having hole/decay from where all these problems start from). There are many good toothpastes in Nigeria that contain flouride (Close up, Colgate, Pepsodent, Oral B etc). These are the ones that is recommended for us. And even at that, once tooth pain has started, these ones can't take care of it. It will be wise to go see a Dentist.

At least we are heading ALMOST to same direction.I choose not to refer to dentists in Nigeria as surgeons because a whole lot of them are doing in many cases EXACTLY what is received for the specialists as you mentioned.I may not have all the knowly,heck I'm even a literary student,BUT I come from a family tree filled with medical personnel and so I've overheard such conversations relating to the subject matter.

We really don't have "DENTIST" who are specialized to treat recurring or severe cases of oral issues.The dentists we have here are just TRYING to do everything,hereby causing more problems.
If I begin to the you what I have gone through,money spents.How many times I've gone under the knife.WHICH KIND TEETH PROBLEM WEY I NEVER TRY TO SOLVE.Even ordinary root canal many dentists cannot handle.Thats why I see many them as too basic.

I don't even want to talk about the outdated equipments in many dental clinics in Nigeria.Their limited knowledge will never make go for suffocated ones.
They don't need you to refer to them as surgeons. A Dentist is also called a Dental surgeon everywhere in the world. That you had a bad experience in the hands of 1 or 2 of them doesn't take away the fact that a dentist is a Dental surgeon.

What you are complaining about also happens with Medical Doctors. There are medical doctors that have killed patients because of their poor knowledge, skill or they didn't refer the patient to a specialist on time. That doesn't mean all medical doctors in Nigeria are not medical doctors because of that. Or that all medical doctors in Nigeria have limited knowledge and skills.

We have about 4,000 dental Surgeons in Nigeria. Only 1 or 2 of them has attended to you and they did a poor job doesn't mean all Dentists in Nigeria have poor knowledge and skills or that they are not Dental surgeons. Travel to Lagos, PH, Enugu, Benin, Abj, etc and go see standard, world Class dental clinics.

You have had a bad experience with a Dentist (that's if the person you saw is even a Dentist). However, there are thousands of successful work that other Dentists have done. You just don't generalise like that. Millions of patients have had successful tooth extraction, successful surgical extraction, successful Root canal therapy, successful removal of jaw tumors, success treatment of fractures of the face, successful rearrangement of their teeth with braces and other Orthodontic appliances, etc for which they are eternally grateful to their Dentists. I saw a comment on this thread where the person said the Dentist treated his brother who had a broken jaw and he did a very good job. Your bad experience doesn't change the fact that Dentists are also called Dental surgeons.


I'm beginning to believe you didn't see a Dentist/Dental surgeon. See, there are many dental clinics in this country that are run by Dental Technologist and dental therapist which is not supposed to be so. Dental therapists do only professional cleaning (scaling and Polishing). Dental Technologists are lab technicians that produce some dental appliances that a Dentist use. A Dental Technologist and Dental therapist are not dentist. One way to Know is to just ask the person "please, which school did you finish from". A Dental Surgeon/Dentist graduates from a University. If the person tells you he graduated from Uniben, UI, UNN, university of Maiduguri,UNIPORT, then that person is a Dentist. There are only about 7 or 8 universities in Nigeria that offer Dentistry as a course. But when the person tells you he graduated from Federal college of Dental technology (which is an equivalent of a college of education abi polythenic), then run for your life. That person can't be a Dentist.

Some of them (Dental Technologist and Dental therapists) own and operate dental clinics and do many procedures on patients that they are not trained to do.

So, when next you visit a private Dental clinic, be very sure that the person you are seeing is a Dentist and you have every right to ask him if he is a Dentist. Only a Dentist/Dental surgeon is qualified to diagnose, and treat diseases of the mouth (and it's contents) and face. If the person tells you he finished from Federal college of Dental Technology, then that person has no business attending to a patient (except if it teeth cleaning you want to do in which case a Dental therapist can do)

Let me help you. Once you graduate from Dental school in the university, you are already a Dentist/Dental surgeon. However, if you want to become a specialist, you will spend about 6-7 years of training to become a specialist (a consultant). For example, Orthodontists, Endodontists, oral and maxillofacial surgeons (in some countries,they seperate them, oral surgeon and maxillofacial surgeon), prosthodontists, Paedodontis, etc. All these groups I mentioned are Dentists/Dental surgeons that have gone for further training to specialise.

Dentists/Dental surgeons can do some basic procedures like tooth extraction, filling, Root canal therapy etc. However, if they see a patient that is far above their skill and knowledge, they will refer to the specialist. For example, if they see a patient with a jaw tumor, or a patient that have fractured the bones of the face maybe due to accident, they will refer such patients to the oral and maxillofacial surgeons. If they see a patient with scattered teeth and they can't rearrange the teeth, they will refer to an orthodontist. And so on and so forth.

So, A Dentist is also called a Dental surgeon. While for example, an orthodontist is a Dental Surgeon/Dentist that has gone for further training to specialise in Orthodontics.

This is my little knowledge on Dentistry!

Which worse, the lies you criminal usually use to scare people
Tell me who are the people working in Federal Dental centres, na goats or dental surgeons/dentist?
Thunder fire you there, crooks like you are the ones that will remove all wisdom tooth without looking back
You are frustrated. Kpele. grin. But let me advise you
1. When you go to a Dental clinic, make sure the person is truly a Dentist. There are those that are called Dental therapists and Dental Technologists. These ones are not Dentists. If you meet them, they will do more harm than good.


2. Secondly, when you have any dental problem, don't go to the Dentist you hear. Na your body go still tell you las las grin

grin grin grin. I'm not even a Dentist but If you or your friend or family members have any oral health challenges, don't go to a Dentist. Use any other method you can use. When it gets worse and no solution, you will still run to the Dentist grin grin.

Na your body go tell you grin grin
