There have been some posts lately that are advising patients and parents to stop a certain medication or start an herbal/alternative one.

Please remember that the people here are not doctors. If you have a doctor and trust his advice, check with that doctor before changing a drug regimen or before beginning or adding a different one.

There is good advice and there is bad advice on the Internet. It's up to you to decide whether or not to take it, and keep in mind that there can be danger involved when making that decision.
