Super nostalgic post for me, thank you! Couple of things, I believe Steve Urkel did in fact use an inhaler... and now I'm sure I'm going to go down a very long rabbit hole, lol
Also, good to see someone else can do a great Carlton dance!
btw. I've been in the substance abuse industry for over eighteen years. Cross reactivity plays such a huge part in people's lives for sure, especially in workplace environments.
I’m pretty confident he did. I also feel like he used to say “I’ve got allergies” or something like that…I spent far too long looking to verify this though, so take that as a warning.
Thanks heaps for reading - I’m glad you enjoyed it.
A week and a half with no caffeine! I'm starting to feel like a human being again.
We don't ever consider the effect of caffeine on other drugs. Drug interactions haven't been a big factor in my life since I avoid medications most of the time.
But I've experienced what happens when you take two different cold medications and end up hallucinating did bodies on the edge of the highway in the dark. It was definitely a "high" way. and shortly after that I was forced to pull over because I was not going to be staying awake.
A week and a half- nice! I’ll be interesting in reading about your experience with withdrawal and how you feel better now.
My clinical experience makes me think these types of drug interactions have a much bigger impact on people’s everyday day lives than we realise. I’m like you and tend to avoid meds, but I have experienced the inhaler/coffee induced shakes on more than one occasion. No cold medicine induced “high”way though!
