.. talk to a patient advocate about your concerns about over medication. I've found the VA to be wonderful about any concerns I've had along those lines. Heck, I've even had the pharmacist from the hospital call me about a misgiving due to a new medication and its interactions with others I have. The patient advocate can be a powerful voice for you, use them!

As one vet to another, be safe and take care.
