Hi. I'm C.S. Kirk, a pharmacist for over 20 years. One of my favorite things to do is to help people learn how to treat their health care conditions inexpensively.

In addition to my being an experienced community pharmacist in America, I lived for 7 years overseas in a country without good health care facilities. While I was there many people, including my own family members and me, got all kinds of illnesses, due to less than sanitary conditions. Plus, day in and day out in America I help people treat themselves in the same way I'll help you now. Pharmacist license may be checked at http://www2.state.tn.us/health/licensure/index.htm, if you wish.

I have no association with the manufacturers of the non-prescription products described in my self-treatment articles. I'm not selling any product; I'm providing information to help you in treating yourself.
