Well, lately on tv and all over I have seen ads for herbal medicines can substitute your prescription medications. There are many disagreements whether these herbal supplements work or not. Prescription drugs often come with harsh side effects while herbal supplements usually treat the same condition without the side effects. What I think.. I believe that it really all depends on the person and the condition.(for example a new herbal rejection drug just came out, that is cheaper than the older synthetic one..now most insurance companies will now not cover the older one and only cover the newer one). Some doctors will say that the herbal drug is not strong enough and won't work as good as the older one. I have to agree I believe in this case the synthetic drug is still the best bet and I would stick with it.. Forgehubbers what do you think?...
