The Archive of Internal Medicine in July published a study showing that a particularly treacherous time of life is between the ages of 40 and 60 due to the self mis-administration of prescription drugs and because physicians now routinely prescribe potent medications for home use that had previously been limited to administration and supervision under hospital care. More responsibility has been shifted to the individual, who under the influence of the drug and, or because of the medical condition under treatment take the drugs improperly in combination with other drugs, alcohol or over dosage.
