Drug Toxicity
General Information about Drug Toxicity

Text

"Drug interactions per se are no threat to a patient; a physician's ignorance either through lack of knowledge of interaction or through lack of adequate observation of the patient and proper interpretation of new events is dangerous."
- Kenneth Lloyd Melmon, Howard Fred Morreli,1978

Drugs are not food but are chemical substances, which alter the body's normal chemistry. Most if not all medications have some kind of negative effect on the body. Maintain a healthy respect for medications, and use them only when really necessary.

"All substances are poisonous, there is none which is not a poison; the right dose differentiates a poison from a remedy"
- Paracelsus, circa 1538
