Re: Commonly prescribed drugs containing fluoride or bromide

Thank you! I recently learned that an unexplained side-effect (in other words: "there is no connection and we can't find anything wrong) of one class of these medicines could explain the side-effect.

(The class of drugs is the SSRIs and the side-effect in painful joints--specifically the big toes.) Luckily I'd already stopped taking these drug, even before I learned about this because they stopped working. (Stopping these drugs was a "female dog!"

I wish I could avoid all drugs. Problem is: It's a choice between the illness that's being treated and the side-effects of the medications. Tough choice sometimes. I'm glad the med's I'm taking now aren't on the list, but you never know what else is lurking in the contents! Tweet
