Dr. Linda Riven

Tendency to over-prescribe medication without consideration for interactions or contraindications. Prescribed FOUR anti-depressants simultaneously, which caused serious side-effects for over two years, including disorientation, increased emotional fragility, memory loss, loss of balance, inability to concentrate, insomnia, and others. A pharmacist finally intervened and indicated that this combination was highly unusual, dangerous, and may be the cause of several of the observed problems. Now on a plan to slowly reduce and eliminate the use of these powerful drugs.
