ketoconazole

[Howardrg]

Doing a Google search on ketoconazole [ingrediant in a medicated shampoo] I found the following info on an American web site............

What side effects can this medication cause?

Ketoconazole may cause side effects. Tell your doctor if either of these symptoms is severe or does not go away:

stomach pain

depression

Some side effects can be serious. The following symptoms are uncommon, but if you experience any of them or those listed in the IMPORTANT WARNING section, call your doctor immediately:

rash

hives

itching

difficulty breathing or swallowing

thinking about harming or killing yourself or planning or trying to do so

A small number of patients who were taking high doses of ketoconazole for prostate cancer died soon after they began taking the medication. It is not known whether they died because of their disease or their treatment with ketoconazole or for other reasons. Talk to your doctor about the risks of taking ketoconazole.

Only in America !!!

Well, if you think that's bad, then try this one for size. "Abnormal ejaculation"? What on earth do they mean by that? Anyhoo, they cleverly left out of those symptoms "compulsion to kill your entire family and then yourself", which is a shame, really.

Ah, the world of modern medicine is wonderful.
