[QUOTE="VitruvianDoc, post: 2254483, member: 13736"] Everyone above has pretty much made the point. There are a lot of medications with a lot of side effects and adverse reactions. In the world of polypharmacy where you can go to 10 different docs and get 10 different prescriptions and get them filled at 10 different pharmacies there is a lot of potential for medication interaction and bad outcomes. The only way to counter this currently is to be "across-the-board" judiciously safe and label any possible interactions in order to trigger you the patient to seek further medical advice. This is one reason why most primary care doctors will ask you to bring in all medications to your health maintenance appointments regardless of if they prescribed it. [/QUOTE]
