Hi,

I cannot seem to get anywhere when I try to research a specific medication on the internet.

I keep running into drug company info, which lists the usual may cause nausea, drowsiness, blah blah blah.

This is probably a dense question, but my brain is overwhelmed with treatment decisions and it is hard to get up the mental clarity to figure out.

Thanks,
Char

Char,

I have to research drugs all the time. I actually find wikipedia.org to be a great resource.

You can also access Merck manual online, but that can get pretty technical. They do have a paitent guide, but is not as thorough. http://www.merck.com/

Then there is RXlist, which is pretty good. www.rxlist.com

Hope that is helpful!

Hayley
