I can't for the life of me imagine where they have gotten the idea that it can be good for things like the symptoms of menopause. It is a dangerous drug and should not be used for all of these ancillary purposes including, yes, the fatigue for which it was prescribed for me. Obviously they get the idea from someplace. Could it be from the drug company, perhaps?
hello there, chemist here...well, i suppose that is the case...i ask this question quite plainly: do you not take any medications at all as a result of this experience? are you taking benedryl only, no alternatives? just curious....all the best, chemist
