Scott: Doctor, you mentioned sleeping pills,prescription for sleep help. What are some of the most dangerous medicationsyou think that are still being commonly prescribed today?

Dr. Carolyn Dean: Well, you know I didn't thinksleeping pills were that bad so I'm just stunned. 

I think the statin drugs are right up there andit's partly because of the cavalier attitude of doctors prescribing them. I'veheard doctors say 'Well, they should be in the water supply'.
