Guest guest Posted July 10, 2001 Report Share Posted July 10, 2001 Jerry, I dutifully read the article, was outraged at how the results often don't include the fact that women react to different drugs differently than men do - and often the test subjects are predominantly male. Then, I put it in my recycling bin, and then my husband put the recycling out at the curb - it's gone! I don't even know who wrote it now. I will ask my OB/GYN if she can get me another copy - but this one took about 3 months to get - she's one busy woman. I did do some searching on the web last night and was able to find some interesting things about the various diet drugs - I also have the PDR and found that Xenical is not the same class of drugs as was referred to in the aforementioned article. When I get the article again I'll scan it and post it here - okay? dina Dina in Aloha, OR Age 37/BMI 61 Waiting for my consult with Dr. Hoping my new insurance will cover it all....
