How many Rxs go undigested ???

[Guest guest]

This story reminds me of my father and his experience with taking a statin

medication. One day he came out of the bathroom totally enraged because he saw

his pill in complete form, enteric coating and everything in his poop! He called

his doctor and made an appointment (to basically rip him apart). The guy didnt

know what to think. He leaves the room for a few minutes and comes back in an

offers to write him a Rx for another statin drug.

 

My father was at odds about taking one in the first place but at that time

refused the competitor's pill and basically told the doctor that prescriptions

were basically useless and he didnt want any more LOL. He's 77 and has pretty

much had it with the traditional medical establishment anyway. But it was VERY

interesting to realize that this probably happens to a lot of people, they take

pills and these end up in our waste system, partially absorbed or not absorbed

at all? Think about it the next time you reach for that luscious glass of tap

water...

TAKING EFFEXOR FOR DEPRESSION. I can't say why I got this great  idea, but one

day I decided to open a capsule of this medication I had  been taking for quite

some time called " Effexor " . Guess What?? Out  pour hundreds of tiny mustard seed

size balls that look just like pure  white eggs....JUST LIKE THE ONES IN MY

STOOL! >
