That can't be bad, I don't give a monkeys what it says on the packet.
If you read about the side effects no doubt you will be on the next sick parade complaining of these symptoms.
I like you are reliant on what the doctors tell us. In my case to good effect.
There a little tale about obeying doctors orders Roy. Back in 1990 when I was in the throws of setting p the Hyndburn branch of The National Asthma Campaign (now Asthma UK) I went on Radio Lancashire the day before the first meeting. The presenter Joe (can't remember his last name) was asking me about what treatment was available and were the there any good hospital doctors, to which I told him about my consultant Professor Ormerod (he was just doctor then) he just said is he any good, I said as far as I'm concerned he walks on water. A few days later I received a letter from the said doctor thanking me for my unsolicited praise, he went on to say that on the same evening on arriving home from work his wife had 5 loaves and three fishes on the table saying that she and the village were waiting for their tea
