which is best?

Blackhorse, your question, as you state it, is impossible to answer. Which is best for whom, and in what circumstances?

Good question Barbara. Let me re-phrase it; Which drug would you NOT want to live without?

Of course, if you're a MAN, the answer is obvious. Viagra!! LOL

You wish.

I would probably be dead to day if it were not for penicillin. "The Mold In Dr. Florey's Coat" by Eric Lax is an excellent read on the story of penicillin.

I think I agree with pencilin. The blood pressure drugs I take daily are probably as important for my life.

If anyone here is interested, there is a website http://coreynahman.com which is like the "AP News" of the pharmaceutical world. Lots of late breaking news on the newest medicines and other pharmaceutical related industry news headlines. Neat stuff.
