[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

sj, what antibiotic? That way I can just look up the specifics for you.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

Unrelated, does someone want to explain to me why this would possibly cost $30??? Am I missing something?

(I'm window shopping for water toys to take up to Canada. There are many frivolous items making me go "Ooooh!" but I draw the line at spending $30 for a PLASTIC BOWL. I mean, COME ON.)

Shit's all sorts of different now.

I'm listening to that program and I'm wondering if Bradley's parents had gone to a therapist like the one Jona's parents went to, Bradley would have a different story? I think some people, especially some parents tend to really be blinded by the term "expert" and stop following their own extincts when it comes to raising their kids. I hear pain in Bradley's parents voices - particularly his mother's - like there is some small voice in her head telling her that what she's doing isn't totally all right and she's really conflicted with wanting her son to be happy and wanting to keep him from being hurt. I don't agree with what she's doing to her kid, but I sort of feel for her.

Does anyone have any experience with Rozerem? Is it something I'd have to take every day for a while to have an effect, or is it something I could use every once in a while if I needed it?

Emily, I think you should be able to take it only as needed.

sj, give me a minute and I'll dig up the info.

sj, you're fine with prilosec -- it's just things like Tums and Rolaids that affect Cipro. (Prilosec isn't even technically an "antacid"; it's a proton-pump inhibitor.)

As for dairy, here's what I found:

Ciprofloxacin should not be taken with dairy products (like milk or yogurt) or calcium-fortified juices ALONE since absorption of ciprofloxacin may be significantly reduced; however, ciprofloxacin may be taken with a meal that contains these products.

It's totally a take-as-you-need.

Thanks, Teppy! I appreciate you looking that up for me. Medication makes me so nervous.

You're welcome!

Medication makes me so nervous.

That's totally normal. It's people like me, who take handfuls of pills with abandon*, who are the freaks.

*(Okay, I don't really take HANDFULS of pills, but I tend to not worry about interactions. Remind me of that when my liver falls out, okay?)
