Guest guest Posted February 20, 2000 Report Share Posted February 20, 2000 Cooky: So did you get your Minocin or are you trying the generic on this round? I agree: people, including pharmacists, just don't get it when it comes to the importance of this disease. I've mentioned this before but when I first started AP, unbeknownst to me the pharmacy had given me generic. When I refilled and found the error, I started the Minocin as prescribed ( " no substitutes " per Dr. Trentham) and within a day really noticed a difference! In all honesty, I myself was surprised but it was a lesson well-learned and I will not accept generic in the future. Babs RA 8/98, DX 4/99, AP 11/99 200 mg. Minocin 2.5 mg. Methotrexate 112 mcg. Synthroid 2 mg. Hytrin 10 mg. Lipitor Mestinon Vits. & Misc. Suplmts. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted February 22, 2000 Report Share Posted February 22, 2000 Hi Cooky and Babs, It really made a difference when the pharmacy switched on me without telling me. I went into a pretty bad herx when I began to take name brand only. Now I too make sure that is all I get also.
