The author also reviews existing medication, describes their therapeutic properties and gives advice on how to avoid negative effects.The information given here should serve general readers in their daily lives. Like other works in the "Santé au quotidien" series, this book offers reliable, up-to-date scientific information, expressed in clear simple language.
