The crap in medical journals about new drugs was written by PR firms of Big Pharma (per JAMA). If you allow them, doctors will add one drug after another, overdosing you, as most of them interact. In fact, most are processed by the exact same liver enzyme (called ‘3A4’).
And some drugs (‘inhibitors’) block up the metabolism of others. You get tons of drug interactions and vastly more side effects. Few doctors know anything about drug interactions. In fact, they will prescribe to treat the side effects they caused,
thus causing more interactions and side effects. This actually has a name – the #PrescribingCascade.
