| A vegetarian's dilemma I found out yesterday that the mefenamic acid capsules I have been taken for a few years to deal with period pain contain gelatine, in the coating. There is no way I could take the powder from the capsule, because I think mefenamic acid has effects on your digestive system.
I've *****ed before about animal rights activists with diabetes or asthma or some other illness which requires regular medication. I'm not an animal rights activist, but it distresses me that I am probably committing hypocrisy. Luckily my period finished yesterday, so I don't have to come up with the answer for another month or so.
What do you think? I'm now going to look for different forms of mefenamic acid on the net. |
