 In fact, how could ANY lay-person know - no matter HOW PD-knowledgeable they
 are - keep track of all the contra-indicated drugs, when their doctor and
 pharmacist are unable to track that type of drug and disseminate the
 information to the patient???

Barb,
I have never done this and I don't know how often it happens, but I have heard
that  the Wash U (in St Louis) College of Pharmacology has a reputation of
delighting to find drug interactions that physicians have missed.  Try your
local College of Pharmacology.  The worst thing that could happen is they just
say no-or maybe charge you?  The major problem, of course, is finding the time
to do so-- especially when your pills are fouled up.
