Labs getting better
I usually go to Polyclinic in Thrissur for most blood testing and x-ray purposes. I have been going there almost every month now. But this month, there was more visits than usual. I had to get x-rays for my dental purposes more than once. First time I went I had to hold the film inside my mouth using my finger. But the next time I went, they had a special holder to which I can bite to hold it, which was much more easier. So thats a little improvement. But when you look at the net you can see labs which perform much bigger tasks like cell authentication, mycoplasma detection and other research.

Correct Med
These days I am working on maintaining free open articles and I am looking for all kinds of stuff including medications - when looking into medications, I am trying to include both the effects and the side effects of the drug. You need to tell people both the good and the bad. When I was looking into multiple sclerosis, I came across a drug called Rebif - this too has its good and bad. I had even ayurvedic doctors telling me if treatement isn’t correct even ayurvedic medicines will have side effects.

Thinking to start an online pharmacy
I am thinking to start my own online pharmacy. These days I am seeing reports of how people are being cheated of heavy prices put by pharmacy stores in Kerala. So if I can sell the drugs directly to customers, I think that I can protect them from the unfair prices.
Though online pharmacies are common in US and other countries, it has not come to Kerala. For example if you need to buy Phentermine (which is an over the counter appetite suppressant) - see this - http://www.shoppharmacycounter.com/t-phentermine.aspx

Lab Uniform
I had a recent visit to one of the top labs in Thrissur to check out my cholesterol levels. Well my cholesterol levels are pretty high - but thats not the thing that I am discussing now. When I went to the lab, I found out they are all wearing white lab coats. Now I am a colorful person (or at least I think that I am) - so checked online if the lab coats are available in different colors. In most cases (almost 99%), they were white - but I do find one site saying that color lab coats are ideal in children wards.

Side Effects of Apidexin
If you don’t know what apidexin is - its a diet pill or fat burner. So are there any side effects? A lot of questions has been asked about apidexin side effects. Well, even though apidexin contains only natural supplements - if you are taking any prescription drugs, then its better to ask your doctor before you take in any diet pills. Also for pregnant women - they should also avoid any drugs unless its prescribed by their doctor.
