A member asked:

Is it a good idea to go to the hospital to get observed when just starting a new medication?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Odd post: Unless your history suggests you will have a major reaction to the med hospital observation would not be routine or recommended. Some might start a med in their doctors office if there were any concerns.
