Good ones! But wouldn't that last one be determined by the Pharmaceutical companies. Or are you asking her if they would work just as well if one were made by a Pharmaceutical company? Speaking of pharmacies, aret't you a pharmacist? We could definately use your expertise regarding this 8 hour interval thing. If you don't mind me asking, at what intervals do you dispense you meds and why? It might be better if you email me on that one at ltorony@CT2.nai.net. Thanks for your input. Lynn
