i admit i have not looked at/got Dr. Hales book yet--But my question is
this--is there a good one-page type handout for brfdg decisionmaking/teaching
 that says which OTC meds are ok?  I know women should consult their MDs
before taking meds but so muich of the handout/teaching stuff says "Do not
take ANYTHING no aspirin, no cold meds no......" without checking first.

Also, another colleague asked , when I recommended getting Dr. Hales book for
staff, "Can't they/don't they use the PDR?"  My response was that it is very
hard to wade through the PDR but I honestly dont know if it is less current
etc.  Any ideas from you all?  thanks
