Some changes have taken place at PlanetRx.com since I posted the instructions on September 12, 1999. Here is the URL where you can learn more about the prescription drugs you are taking:

* Drug Information A-Z http://www.planetrx.com/product/rx/drug_lib.asp

1. Read and follow the instructions.

2. Click the first letter (A-Z) of the drug you are searching for. If the drug is not listed, enter the name of the drug in the the box and click: SEARCH.

3. Scroll down. If the name of the drug is shown, click the name of the drug and you will be taken to the site where you will find information about the drug.

4. In addition to the information on that page - You will find additional information about the drug, by clicking the following words:

a. Uses

b. Instructions

c. Side Effects

d. Warnings

e. Drug Prices
