Kim Richards' bizzare behavior, slurred speech, half-closed eyes, and other symptoms that would seem to indicate that she's drunk are apparently not due to alcohol; they're due to a dangerous combination of prescription drugs, according to Dr. Paul Nassif. Like Michael Jackson, whose recent...
It seems like it should be difficult to get and abuse prescription drugs, but judging by some of this month's top stories—Dr. Conrad Murray's guilty verdict in the Michael Jackson death trials; Kim Richards' recent revelation that her prescriptions are making her seem drunk; new studies...
In my dream I was standing over my kitchen sink cutting up pill and making it look like crack, but it was testosterone (you're supposed to take it as a shot) and I took way to much in my dream like a weeks worth in one day. And my mom or some one else was like "you just took too many, you...
My friend has gotten high everyday since Saturday to the point he falls asleep, when he wakes up he always tells me about these dreams that happen. Can drugs effect the dreams.
Patients with recent use of aspirin, nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDS), or anti-clotting drugs such as clopidogreal (Plavix) do not appear to have an increased risk of bleeding during or after removal of precancerous lesions in the digestive tract, according to results of a Mayo...
Results from a long-term follow up from the Intergroup Exemestane Study's (IES) data published in the Journal of Clinical Oncology reveals that women's risk of dying from breast cancer can be reduced by changing to an aromatase inhibitor called exemestane after two to three years of tamoxifen...
A new study published in CMAJ discovered that, since the 2003 introduction of Canada's Common Drug Review, the number of drugs covered by public drug plans has considerably decreased. There are 19 public drug plans in Canada. In 2010, these plans accounted for approximately 39% of the projected...
A commonly prescribed blood pressure-lowering medication appears to kick start recovery in the unaffected brain hemisphere after a stroke by boosting blood vessel growth, a new University of Georgia study has found. The discovery, based on a study using rats and published recently in the online...
Antiviral drugs used to target the herpes virus could be effective at slowing the progression of Alzheimer's disease (AD), a new study shows. The University of Manchester scientists have previously shown that the herpes simplex virus type 1 (HSV1) is a risk factor for Alzheimer's when it is...
MRI scanning could become a powerful new tool for assessing how well cholesterol drugs are working, according to Loyola University Health System cardiologist Binh An P. Phan, MD. Phan is co-author of an MRI study of patients who had recently begun taking cholesterol medications. The study found...
Although exercise is often prescribed as a treatment for migraine, there has not previously been sufficient scientific evidence that it really works. However, research from the Sahlgrenska Academy at the University of Gothenburg, Sweden, has now shown that exercise is just as good as drugs at...

Sensors made from custom DNA molecules could be used to personalize cancer treatments and monitor the quality of stem cells, according to an international team of researchers led by scientists at UC Santa Barbara and the University of Rome Tor Vergata. The new nanosensors can quickly detect a...
Researchers are a step closer towards creating a new class of medicines and vaccines to combat drug-resistant and deadly strains of fungal infections, following a new study published today in Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences. Yeast infections are the fourth most common cause of...
A global study in 17 countries led by McMaster University researchers has found too few patients are using drugs proven to give significant benefits in warding off a heart attack or stroke. This is true in high income countries, like Canada, as well as middle and low income countries, say the...
Scientists at The Scripps Research Institute have devised a much easier technique for performing a chemical modification used widely in the synthesis of drugs and other products. Known as "trifluoromethylation," the modification adds a CF3 molecule to the original compound, often making it more...
