Many Medical practitioners always tell you, NEVER take #Flagyl & Alcohol together within 3 days (72 hours) apart but Never give you a concrete reason.

So it's my duty as an Pharmacist to disclose the Chemistry behind it.

(Retweet for awareness)
🧵 A Thread 👇 #ChiefRx Image
Flagyl (Metro) itself is an Alcohol with Nitrogens attached to it.
👇
2-(2-Methyl-5-nitro-1H-imidazol-1-yl) ETHANOL

The added moieties to the alcohol makes it effective on certain infections.

(Quick Remainder that Alcohol can be used as Sanitizer against microbes)

Start a side project instead of a company.

Write a bIog post instead of a book.

Lower the Stakes to increase the Odds.
You can't have a company without a "side project" most people forget this and directly aim to start something big.

Starting something small gets you in the groove and makes it more likely to succeed
1. Start a blog
2. Write new ideas
3. Compound knowledge learned
4. Then, write a book

Take more action in pubIic.

The right people will find you.

Value attracts Opportunities!
Before you can build anything, you must first build yourself.

The first thing to build is your body.

Eat healthy, exercise.

Then you build your mind through reading.

Then you build a business.

And then, when you become successful, your business builds an empire for you.
Stop looking for a million dollar idea and start working with what you have.

You can always perfect it later.

"Ideas don’t make you rich.

The correct execution of ideas does."

Leave your past where it belongs.
You are not your past

It isn't here , nor you're there.

Forget what happened. Learn what it taught and move on.
Don't carry your past.

It will only a burden on you.
