No, and I'd be looking for alternative solutions if it was ever suggested. Though I'm not adverse to taking basic painkillers (ibuprofen and paracetamol) for headaches. However 9 times out of 10 my headaches aire either dehydration or caffeine withdrawal
.
But yeah I have severe reservations about pills. My mum was on so many she rattled. Pills, and pills to counteract the side effecrs of other pills... ridiculous. Half of them messed her up even more physically and SSRI's (antidepressants) actually made her depression far, far worse. I wouldn't touch anything like that with a bargepole. Most of them are still semi-experimental, the people who MAKE the damn things don't fully understand the effect they have, let alone the ground-level GP's dishing them out like tic tacs.
