Hubby had a rash come up which didn't seem to want to clear so for the first time in years he went to the doctor.The doctor gave in a health check and pronounced him to be very fit and gave him a perscription for some tablets to clear the rash. On reading the leaflet inside he's taking them but he is of two minds.... May cause dry mouth...Ok so you drink a little more May experience tiredness.......nothing unusual Stomach pains.......dont want them, weekness....spoil his macho image and to add to this chest tightness, weezing, unexpected swelling and flushing leading to collapse We laughed our socks off as it seems that if you are one of the unfortunate ones that this happens to you end up worse than you were before taking the tablets.

hi lynn, best not to read the leaflet,its just there for insurance purposes,to cover the manufacturer,in case something goes wrong,and it very rarely does. in the case of a rash,theres usually an alternative...ie,an ointment,but this information,sometimes is not given freely,for reasons i best not say. take the pills,feel better soon. bryan.
