Hi Sharon,

You're absolutley correct with the information you gave. Only one lot

was tainted, though. I usually keep my recent posts in a folder on my

computer but when I did my hard drive reformat after those computer

troubles last week, I didn't back up my old mail posts. The article will

still be available in our JRA List Message Archives, if you go to the

onelist site and do a search in JRA for Lodine.

Take Care,

Georgina

I take Lodine as an NSAID. I've found that the regular release capsules

that I take 3x a day work better for me than the extended release that

I take 2x a day.
