Dr. David Samadi, the nation’s top robotic prostatectomy surgeon, discusses the prevalence of routine prescription medications. Blood pressure medication, pain medication, cholesterol medication, anti-anxiety drugs, and sleep aids may not be the best answer for all patients. Beyond the careful monitoring of the side effects of prescription medication, Dr. Samadi suggests a FAST approach. F = doctors may be too fast to write prescriptions; A = a positive attitude – healthy mind, health body – goes a long way; S – reduce stress as much as possible; T – make a therapy list to discuss with each of your doctors. Whenever possible, Dr. Samadi advises exploring lifestyle changes and more natural alternatives for improving overall health. www.roboticoncology.com
