A friend of mine in the eeduction biz tells me that close to half of the elementry age kids in a local school are on ridalin.

Things are getting to be very strange in the US regarding the control that the pharma industry is exerting on our society (with the help of many doctors).

My vet recommended Glucosamine w/ chondrontin for by black lab when she began having hip problems--500 mg per day for her 45 lb. weight. Made a TREMENDOUS DIFFERENCE in her mobilitiy. I couldn't believe how well it works. Takes about 3 weeks to see a visable difference. Vet said she could have more than 500 mg. but that amount worked well for her.

I have a 10 month old English Bulldog- with Elbow dyslplasia- vet prescribed Deramaxx for the pain- did not really want to keep her on that and started the Glucosamine/Chondroitin which you can buy in any pet supply store- it has made a tremendous difference for her also!!

My mom has been on Vioxx for 2 years-she cannot take Pfe- Celebrex- think she is allergic to something in it! She is going to call her doc- but is really quite upset as it was helping her manage her back pain and not sure what the alternative is at this point.
