In order for your doctor and pharmacist to be able to optimally help you, it’s critical that at least one of your doctors (such as your primary care doctor) knows all of your medicines, and it’s best to get them all at the same pharmacy. Getty Images.

DEAR DR. ROACH: I am an 84-year-old male in fairly good health for my age. I take 8-10 pills a day, including two over-the-counter medications. I take four or five in the morning and four or five in the evening. My question is, how effective are these medications if they are all being taken together and mixed in my stomach? Won’t there be some kind of chemical reaction resulting in less effectiveness?

***Senate Bill 48*** By: Captain Sean M. Sanborn Here at the Coos County Sheriff’s Office, we often hear frustration and anger when it comes to who is held or who is not held. Often times we refer to Senate Bill 48 when it comes to who is released, or not released from the jail. In 2021 our legislature passed this bill and made it into law. The fact is, we don’t have a choice on who is and who is not to be held in the county jail. It is often claimed that the Coos County Sheriff’s Office is making excuses. To dispel that assumption, I am providing you with the law that we are required to follow. It should be noted that my provision of this information is not intended to either support or not support this law, but to educate the public on the realities of policing. The text of the bill itself explains the process and includes when and how booking photos may be released to the public, as well as what conditions must be present to hold for those crimes which are releasable. The Release Guidelines Categorization List provides those crimes which the offender be released on without any other convictions or superseding crimes. Guideline 1 lists those crimes which an individual is released from the jail on their own recognizance with general conditions. Guideline 2 specifies those crimes which the person is released under court imposed conditions which usually include some form of specificity on prohibited behavior, locations or associations. Guideline 3 specifies those crimes where a suspect must be held until at least the first arraignment with other conditions. As always, we appreciate your support and also appreciate your understanding.Photos from Coos County Sheriff's Office's post
