I know one could get hit by a meteor or a tornado. But those are UNFORSEEN events. The taking of two drugs that have the potential to induce a fatal result is KNOWN. (emphasis mine)

> Friends,
> Taking two drugs together is not the same as taking double one of the drugs. The effects that could kill you when more than one drug is taken is increased exponentially, not additively. Anna Nicole Smith was killed by the combination of drugs that she took prescribed to her. You see, what can happen is that a component in your brain, lets say that regulates the heart or breathing can be "turned off" when more than one drug is taken, resulting in death. Yet today, people are prescribed by psychiatrists/doctors multiple drugs that can kill the one taking the drugs.
> Many of you already know that there are many people that have posted here that have died. A look at what is posted in those cases reveals a common denominator of them taking multiple drugs. Then there are those names not seen here of posters from the past.
> I am trying to save lives here by posting facts. Facts that I think could mark the difference between you being a live person or a corpse.
> Here is a link to an article that I would like those considering being a discussant in this thread or parallel threads to read.
