Some antidepressant drugs can cause sweating, sometimes in as many as one in seven people using them. Opiates (like morphine) can alsolir cause this side effect. Discuss any side effect you are concerned about with your doctor and pharmacist. How do you handle any unused, discontinued or out of date medications in your medicine cabinet? Keeping these old medications around can cause confusion and can pose a safety risk if some of these medications are taken in error with other medications. Play it safe and bring the medications you aren't using to the pharmacy for safe disposal. Two tablespoons of peanut butter contain 25% of our daily fat needs. It's a good source of protein and fibre and sure tastes good. most of the fat in peanut butter is unsaturated fat, which is the healthier type. Look for the types that have no trans -fats in them. Eaten in moderation, peanut butter can be a tasty part of your diet. A few years ago, a study of oral contraceptive users found that 62% had missed at least one dose during the previous six months and 11% had missed six or more doses. The birth control pill is over 99% effective if taken correctly. If a dose is missed just after the seven-day drug-free period, the risk of pregnancy rises.
