One Lexotanil Please.
Why is it that every doctor in an emergency room of a hospital has insisted on prescribing Lexotanil for me, no matter what ailment it was? My blood pressure was plummeting today, so I went over to Faiz e Aam, the private hospital located at Shaheed – e- Millat, where the doctor in the ER insisted that I was depressed, that low BP was not a ‘dijeej’ [I kid you not, that’s exactly what he said] and then tried to force me into taking a Lexotanil, despite my insisting that I would not take a sedative. Perhaps my fear of Lexotanil prescribing doctors was born when I once accompanied my dad to the ER of a private clinic in Gulshan e Iqbal, and the doctor on call prescribed Lexotanil for every patient that walked in. No, I’m not exaggerating. Sometimes I think that pharmaceutical companies give away a free return ticket to France to the doctor who prescribes the most Lexotanils.
I wouldn’t be surprised if they do.

Hi Huma,
Pharmaceutical pay offs are probably the least of pakiatans heath care problems ..but big news elsewhere. He was right though (even if he can’t pronounce it) low b.p is not a problem for an otherwise healthy young individual, unless you have lost a lot of fluid you can’t replace like rapid blood loss /malabsorbtion/diarrhea or your heart can’t generate enough pressure to keep your bp normal – heart failure/ heart attack/ arrhythmia etc etc.
ps. most young women in er’s the world over who don’t have an identifiable illness get diagnosed and treated for anxiety …around 40% of the time that turns out to be the problem.
Take a warm shower , drink some hot milo and take some rest , always beats taking Laxotanil .
