Remember this - when _doctors_ aren’t clear about drug interactions they call the pharmacist. That is part of the _job_ of being a pharmacist, to check drug interactions. Seriously, if you’re not sure call the pharmacist.

There are times, of course, when a pharmacist may flag something - sometimes the pharmacist and the doctor need to talk to each other - but I’m hoping Whiterabbit’s boyfriend doesn’t get into anything that interesting.
