Thought I would drop by here to let you all greet the day with a Happy Valentines wish xxx
Terry, the P drug is just the generic form of the N drug...whatever works for you mate.
greetings
Two different drugs that belong to the same family, the brand name of the P drug is S-O-M-A-C. The N drug has a string of law suits to face regarding side effects including kidney failure

Thanks for that reminder Terry. I had been taking both drugs for a long time (yes simultaneously even) and it is easy to mix them all up and of course you are very correct (as usual). That warning about kidney failure is not so pleasant, when people trust the drug companies to help them instead of killing them. I am still needing to take 2 of the panto ones daily , 40mg even, so not as lucky as some.
It took well over 15yrs before I got the dose down to 20mg daily, but I still have flair ups where I need a Mylanta tablet or two at night. During the 15 yrs I did manage to wean off them and spent maybe 6 mths without them, one letter from the lawyers regarding the NRMA accident claim, and within a few days I was back at the doctors and on 40mg daily.
With the workshop burning down, I struggled on the 20mg, but it is gradually settling down again.
Ate to much last night at the pub having a dinner with my valentine ... and her plus one, coco the dog, so today I felt like a beached whale .... not to eat Dottie and Bernie, just blotted ... the wallet is much lighter now though, $42 a round of a beer and a glass of wine, at a pub, maybe a tad upper class venue, but nothing that over the top ... but the food is top class, and so was the company
