The craziest story that I have probably heard that i'm not so sure about was I once heard of this guy who took the wrong pills together and lost his mind, and then he killed his, son and from that point was concerned about what pills I take together, like an allergy with B12 or something like that, so I make sure to search up before I take my medications.
