In posting here, I was originally agreeing with the OP who found life's quality (and bike riding) to be better without his prescription. Your results may vary, and I already said that, also. I am sorry I interrupted the discussion of ailments and prescriptions for same, for those who may enjoy that discussion.
I don't disagree with you. I've stopped a couple of medications due to side effects that outweighed their benefits. Just pointing, as you did, that even water can be hazardous if taken to great excess, so your comment about warfarin (Coumadin) being a poison but aspirin being non-poisonous was inaccurate. Aspirin actually has a number of side effects some of which can be serious or even fatal. Everything has a benefit to risk balance that must be evaluated based on the individual.
