Semap contains a form of fluride.
Fluride can be carcinogenic.
Yet they fluridate our water supply?
If you are truely concerned, check with your Dr re the risk factors, and balance this against the current improvement in your life from this medication.
E.g, if it increases your risk of cancer by less than 1% but increases your quality of life by 100% then I would keep taking it.
If it increases your risk of cancer by 100% with a 1% increase in quality of life, then I would stop taking it.
Anywhere in between, gets to be a balancing act that only you can decide!
Good luck.
