The Fourth of July is a holiday that unfortunately many in Louisiana now associate with an increase in drunk driving risks and accidents.

What is a drug interaction?
There is no shortage of reasons that might lead a person in Louisiana to need a medication.

One of the ways this might happen is via what is referred to as a drug interaction.
Drug recalled but no replacement offered yet
People in Louisiana who rely on prescription medications to help them manage serious or potentially life-threatening medical conditions should be able to trust that the drugs they are given will actually help them not hurt them. Many things go into creating this level of trust including the reviews that should happen during a drug's trial before it is ever released to the market. Unfortunately, some medications are allowed to be legally sold and prescribed but then are later found to be potentially dangerous. In these situations, a recall may be issued.
