Guest guest Posted February 19, 2010 Report Share Posted February 19, 2010 , I have used Zinc and Zinc Oxide for years and years with no problems/side effects. However, I have always stayed within the user guidelines for application, never exceeding the limit. As for adding to the Medical Alert List, there are probably medications that should be added for adverse effects and plenty more herbals and 'naturals' too. Plus mixing of certain medications with food (such as amitriptyline and grapefruit), or simply being out in the sun, can all increase the amount of medication one receives, without knowing it. The very best we can do is understand the Medication Alert List, and know all the different medications that are * deriviative * of medications listed. My experience with Propranolol given to me for tremors exacerbated my CMT symptoms 100%. I was a wreck physically. It is a very common medication for tremors. Only I could not walk, I would stagger and fall. Stopped the medication once I learned it comes from Dilantin. (on the Medication List) We all have uniquely designed nervous systems, and vigilance over all, even herbals, botanicals, pharmaceuticals etc. is needed.

Guest guest Posted February 20, 2010 Report Share Posted February 20, 2010 I get soooooo sick if I don't eat ( A LOT) with a zinc. I prefer a product called Cholorfresh now. I never get sick from it. It works so much better for me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
