MDs read sales literature that says the same as the commercials we see on TV. What’s an MD gonna say? Give it a try and get back to me, Uh, if you develop an allergic reaction.. blah. It’s the pharmacist you should ask. Smarty Pats
About 20 years ago, I had an elderly neighbor who was a hypochondriac. Whenever she heard of an offer like that, she’d call or write…no matter WHAT the disease.They’d send her a form you have to fill out, and return, along with a prescription from your doctor, to get your free trial.She would fill them out, probably incorrectly, and send them in, without the prescription…so nothing ever came… but she kept on trying.Of course, she also sent in endless contest and sweepstakes entries.I got out her magnifying glass and read her the disclaimers on the back like “IF your card is drawn you MAY have won a television, etc” .So she said she stopped sending in the ones that asked for a few dollars for “processing your prize” …. but she probably didn’t.She sent $5 a month to Oral Roberts, too.He, or rather his organization, sent her a little thank you card that she carried in her wallet, with the address of his hospital and rest home, which she believed would take her in if she ever needed them…. which she never did, luckily.

Don’t worry about it. In Crustwood, they add it to the public water supply.
