> Aww, Jeez! I guess I should follow this stuff, eh? < g >*heh* Don't feel bad. The only reason I knew about it was cuz I'm changing meds and doing heavy research as to "what next". I went to the glaxowellcome website for the official pharmacology and found out they're not glaxowellcome anymore. :)
> < g > Sorry about that! It means that I think that one or of WB's metabolites (such as hydroxybupropion), and not bupropion itself, might be responsible for its antidepressant effects, and therefore that the folks at (umm, they're calling it GSK now, right?) should be taking a close look at those metabolites.
Ummm...Okay. And that means...they could maybe narrow it down and feed us less extra-stuff?
Or are you talking just from a "knowing what's doing what" standpoint?>steals some). Most retail pharmacists have forgotten all their pharmacology. It's even worse than doctors being reduced to HMO stooges (academicians like Dr. Bob are exceptions).
Again, I'm very spoiled, my pharmacists (I have two who know me and I know them) are really cool. Madison, WI is a great place to live if you want to patronize small non-chain businesses who really care. :)
> Anyway, what's this "lil'ole me" stuff? I'm the one who didn't even know about that big pharmaceutical co. merger!*grin* again, relax, it was a FLUKE that I found out at all.
