Same as above also she was kind and actually educated me in something new- she noticed I was on a blood pressure medication and expressed. I should not take Mucinex DM and that I should take just the regular Mucinex and then I could also take ibuprofen. I didnâ€™t even think I forget to check about my medicationâ€˜s interacting with each other so Iâ€™m glad that the doctor actually noticed that and told me when I asked her if I should take DM versus the regular I am very appreciative. I went home and told everyone right away so they donâ€™t make that Mistake.

External Professional Relationships

Pharmaceutical, device, and biotechnology companies frequently collaborate with basic scientists and physicians within an academic medical center to help advance science and improve patient care. These relationships are important in achieving scientific breakthroughs and in establishing the effectiveness and safety of promising new therapies. In order to assure objectivity in clinical research and patient care, the Northwestern University Feinberg School of Medicine (Feinberg), Northwestern Memorial HealthCare, Children's Hospital of Chicago Medical Center, and the Shirley Ryan AbilityLab have adopted integrity policies that require research and clinical faculty (in full-time, part-time, and unpaid/voluntary categories) to report compensated and uncompensated external industry relationships. Patients are encouraged to discuss these disclosures with their physician as well as to inquire as to how these relationships are overseen by Feinberg.
