"2 pills" where 1 pill = how much docusate Na? The stuff I have is 100mg/pill; I was taking 3 a day when I was on Buprenex all the time.

Hey, that's not too bad.

>I have a list of the percentages of Marplan side effects from this period (which used more people than the trial currently listed by the manufacturer) if you want it.

Cool beans. Where'd you find that? Stuck to a *really old* bottle of pills?

> I was wondering again if you felt that lithium helped irritability? I was thinking about Buspar as well, tho it seems it may increase it.

I didn't notice either way (irritability isn't a major issue for me), but it's used for that sort of thing sometimes. I don't think Buspar would increase irritability...where'd you hear that?
