... which is higher than the usual 50% reduction noted in pharmacological studies.
 * This is an incorrect use of a (very old) primary study; please provide a peer-reviewed secondary study which makes this conclusion. I'm not aware of one.  Sandy Georgia  (Talk) 21:47, 19 November 2009 (UTC)

 * Please read WP:SYN, WP:OR and WP:MEDRS. The source supplied is not a reliable source for a medical statement, to my knowledge there are no peer-reviewed secondary sources that support this text, and the way the clauses were strung together here is synthesis and original research. Tracy Marsh's popular culture book on Tourette's is not a peer-reviewed medical source, and can't be used to cite a medical fact on Wikipedia. Unless there is a reliable source that draws these conclusions about HRT in relation to medication, the text should be deleted; to my knowledge, there are no reviews that support this text as written, which is synthesis. Please don't remove citation tags from uncited text. Sandy Georgia (Talk) 13:55, 24 November 2009 (UTC)

Right, I see what you mean, I'll find something that states these two facts of its own accord later, you can delete the synthesis in the mean time if you want because I might be a few days, I'm doing an essay at the moment.Valethar (talk) 13:54, 24 November 2009 (UTC)
