I guess I'm still left wondering if it is possible to predict, from looking at my previously posted characteristics of these 2 meds, what exactly will be the effects of taking them both at the same time........it seems that an antagonist would counteract, or work against, another med's actions at certain sites....so if one med is supposed to do something at a site, and then you take another med that is going to counter that effect, you'll get one med blocking the other med's effect at certain sites.....which could be both GOOD in some cases and BAD in others....i.e., if one med works against a desired, positive effect, then that's BAD, yet if it works against a negative side effect, then that's good......if this doesn't make sense then the h@ll with it, lol.......it would just be nice to be able to predict what 2 combined meds effects would be by looking at each one's mechanisms of action......I'm sure it can be done fairly accurately but I can't stand trying to do it, way too much technical crap, I need plain English, lol
