My daughter has an anaphylactic reaction to an inactive ingredient that is present in some generic products but not others. We have to be very aware of what company makes the generics she takes to make sure exactly what they contain. That’s why I say most people can take them and not everyone. Some medications will harm her more than help because of an inactive ingredient.

I don’t know if you are in the US, but AB-rated generic equivalents are determined to have a release profile that is within an acceptable range of variance from the reference product to still be considered equivalent. I’m not saying that all diltiazem products are equivalent because obviously Cardizem injection is not the same as Cardizem CD is not the same as Cardizem LA is not the same as Cardizem regular tablet. What I’m saying is that Cardizem CD 240 mg capsules and all of the AB rated equivalents a pharmacy would substitute for it may have some subtle differences, but in general they don’t matter clinically for patients.

The active ingredients are exactly the same. The inactive ingredients may differ and there may be some slight differences in bioavailability that for most people are not significant. There is no reason that the vast majority of people can’t take a generic equivalent of a branded medication. That said, there are sometimes exceptions that need to be considered on a cases-by-case basis. Anyone who says “I can’t take generic medications” is full of shit.

Yes, obviously everything wrong with the country today is the fault of the Democrats. All of it.

Or is it both sides? I mean, both sides are equally bad, right?

/s if it isn’t obvious

“The IDF views the incident with great severity and emphasizes that the soldier’s conduct is wholly inconsistent with the values expected of its troops.”

So smashing the head of a statue of a Palestinian man is bad, but smashing the heads of real Palestinian people is a-ok?

35% is about the point at which you will always have Republicans supporting something regardless of how awful it is as long as it is a Republican position. 40 years of brainwashing by right-wing propaganda and corporate media complicity with it ensure it.

Shouldn’t it be just as illegal for our politicians to use US taxpayer money to fund efforts to promote a Hungarian political candidate? Yet, there was Vance in Europe doing just that and failing like the failing failure that he is. Perhaps we should be investigating that (add it to the list, I guess).

You said I am whitewashing history like maga does. It is right in your post. That expresses an assumption of an intent to do so. As I said, this was an offhanded stupid comment that really wasn’t intended to spark any kind of stupid debate. I am far from supporting any of the current regime and far from trying to paint some PragerU vision of history, but it sure seems like you assumed I was.

I hope you have a great rest of your day.

Okay so it was intended to be snarky sarcasm more than whitewashing anything, but it’s hard to get that across without spelling out my every intention.

The instant snap judgements thrown by everyone and assumptions about viewpointints and intentions on the internet are exhausting.

Mostly because I could just imagine them fucking slave kids…

Oh, I know what assholes these guys were. Still, did they fuck kids with Trump and Epstein?

I’ll bet this is something the founding fathers never saw coming, a thing 45 previous first ladies have never gone before the country to say.
