To all on the list-- I've been (slowly) going over the drug lists provided by Alan Bonander and by Joy Graham, with the idea of providing an updated list of PD drugs, possible drug interactions, and adverse reactions, as suggested by Camilla. I don't think it would be too tough to put together a nice, readable document. However, a thought occurs to me, and I'll toss it out for comments. Camilla suggests that posts of people's personal experiences should be included in some manner, perhaps in a separate section. I think a very nice, easy-to-use format would be to include the drug information on the PD website. Each drug name could include a paragraph of information on interactions and side effects; but the drug name could also be a "hot link" to another page of posts on personal experiences. Readers could then print out any drug information they wanted to keep, and could also "hot link" to the posts and see what others had experienced. One big problem, though, is writing the html. I'm not qualified. I can put the drug text together and forward it on to the Archives, but someone else would have to put it on the website and hot link the personal posts. Comments?
