I didn't say you needed doctor approval. You don't need "approval" to take over the counter meds. But it's still a good idea to check with the doctor first. He's the one who manages your care, the one who prescribes whatever meds you take. I'd also check with the pharmacist to make sure that there aren't any potential adverse reactions with any other medications you're already taking.

I would never just run out and buy a supplement, without first checking to make sure it's safe for ME to take. Just because it's over the counter doesn't mean it's adviseable for YOUR situation.
