I forgot to mention ... if you deal with any old pharmacist, you might

find you made a mistake. I have a buddy who is a smart pharmacist here

in Turkey but he admits that he has not done any research on PH levels

when using various preservatives ... this is important for sure and you

will likely get more good info from a cosmetics or fragrance industry

chemist than the average pharmacist.

 

Keeping PH in an acceptable range is an important thing fer'shur!

 

Y'all keep smiling, Butch http://www.AV-AT.com

Hi!

 

Walgreens??? We have them too..and did give them a try down here.. ONCE.. know

what they did?? They let someone (NOT a pharmacist, mind you)

but somebody who just happened to work there.. maybe a stock clerk??? --- take a

bunch of prescriptions home, MINE being among

them.............and he lost em (or so he claimed) was supposed to be filing

them...........somewhere, this is REALLY the story I got! I told

them that was illegal........my rx's weren't even logged into their computer

sooooooo... my Doc " did " find out about that one.. no more

Walgreens for me..once was enough! And they wonder how people get their hands on

rx's that haven't been filled - go elsewhere and fill them,

well.. that's one way how! We now use a small, non-chain pharmacy here and like

it.. well, as much as one can " like " a pharmacy! Ok.. that's

my Walgreens story for the day - unbelievable, huh?

 

Hugs,

 

Marilyn
