Maybe you eat thousands of things and some interact with each other. You don't know, you're just hoping it will be fine, because learning everything about everything is not feasible, which was my point.
My secondary point is that everyone on this thread is blaming the victim for not doing enough research, while at the same time everyone on this thread is only marginally better - maybe you do enough research in this specific topic, but surely not for everything in life.
- bastawhiz 4y agoIt's hardly "research" if it's printed on the information you're given and the pharmacist is legally required to offer to tell you what you should know when you pick up the medicine. In America (or at least in every state I've lived in) you need to explicitly decline counseling by the pharmacist about new medications.
- blooalien 4y agoExactly! If you cannot be bothered to read the actual warnings that come with any medication you're about to eat, then you're kinda askin' for trouble. They give you those instructions and warnings for good reason.
