I write my comments assuming that anyone that gets legal or medical advice from anonymous commentators on the internet knows the usual "Ask your ________" prior to any of this and so skip the standard disclaimers.
That aside, great point and thanks for the great explanation!
- dragonwriter 8y agoThe problem I have (more with the blogger) is that the stuff he overlooks (except the naproxen/naproxen sodium distinction, which I knew from looking it up previously in relation to a relatives prescription) is all stuff I found in less than a half hour of online research on the drugs in question; if you are a policy expert writing about substitutability of goods within the domain of your expertise, especially if in addition to underlying a polciy argument it's something that there is a risk people will act on in a personal health context, it's simply inexcusable to get all that wrong.
