I am intotal agreeance with Pledge on his reccomendation. I am giving you the link below to read about this drug.It does tell you NOT to stop this drug abrubtly however, but with the help of a doctor, so please contact his doctor today. Tis a shame if it was helping with the hiccups too. There are other anti-spasmotics available tho', and maybe he can tolerate these others better. Good luck to him & you both...

Good morning Pledge, hoping the arthritis holds up a bit better today, so I can help a bit more today on the site. Am going to need lots of cuppas this morning. Would you care for one? :o)
Good morning Mary and Pledge! Save one or two of those cuppas for me please. I figure we have about an hour until it's hot enough to switch to the iced version! Take care and stay cool my friends!
