This would be the domain of the FDA, and that's a political mess. I think that a reasonable place to start would be to examine the struggle to get Zantac OTC. I think that COMBINE demonstrated its efficacy, and it sure seems to meet the safety and non-addictive requirements. I'll see what I can dig up.[/quote]


I am confused about this. Is this saying there is a movement to get zanax OTC? What is COMBINE?

Yes of course. My twin brother was a GD roadie for many years. . .just a slip-up.

Confession? My kids call me the 'lyric queen,' as I know the lyrics to ???? songs. But I often slip up on who the artists are.

Not nice, but I didn't choose this form of CRS.

I would like a private telephone session with Dr. Sinclair. Nal worked initially. I cannot take Ambien to sleep because I am so sick in the morning. I tried Zanax and Clonopin but I drink more at night.
Dr. Sinclair--please help me before I go to "AA".

What are your fees? If u cannot help me or advise me to someone-I am stuck with "AA".It never helped my 82 year old mother.
I am open to any therapy to assist me in getting this drinking under control.
I tried Topamax--nothing...NAl helped until I took the Benzo's.
I am begging someone and Dr. Sinclair for assistance. I don't want to go on Baclofen.
Do I need "AA". Please advise.


Thanks,
