Review for Erowid Center, Grass Valley, CA, USA
Erowid has been, by far, the most useful site I have ever used in the research of pharmacology. I live abroad, and often drugs are prescribed without any directions. Because they are prescribed by a doctor, you want to trust them. Being a cautious patient, however, you also want to know what you are about to take. More than any other site, Erowid's candid explanations of how drugs work, what the side-effects can be, and what possible longterm effects are possible, I have been able to continue working abroad without major incident.
At one time, my wife was prescribed diazepam to help her with a stomach infection. This didn't seem right, and we looked up the effects of diazepam. Without this resource, we may have taken the doctor's advice, and my wife could have become even sicker.
