After comparing the limited information received from farmacists about filled prescriptions with what is discovered upon a quick resaearch online, it seems that the adverse reactions and side effects are often understated on the packege. Should a more comprehensive piece of literature be included with filled prescriptions, and is there a law requiring it so?

Any factsheet that I get from my pharmacy goes into a scary amount of detail about nasty side effects. I think there already is a law or they would not bother to mention those problems. Don't go by what some pharmacist says. Look at the papers instead.

They always give me a paper on all the effects of the medicine I take. I have never had a problem. And yes online is a good way to see if there is more about the drug than what is on the paper.

Why? precious few would read the information and it would make a lot more trash in the land fills.
