Most Valuable SFW for the family. More

Have used this program for years, every since itwas put out on 3 1/2 floppie. Now have 4.4. on CD.

This is one of the best programs to have family wise. I look up every medicine the doctor prescribes and run the Checker to insure it will not have undesireable effects. I loaned it to a friend that had severe problems and he ran the checker and it told him that 2 of the meds he was taking would cause his problems so he went and told the Doctor and guess what, the SFW was right, the Doc prescribed a different med and the friend got better.

It is a crying shame that this SFW is no longer supported or updated.
