Valproate semisodium
re Valproate semisodium, Wikipedia generally does not give prescribing information. David Ruben Talk 00:03, 17 July 2007 (UTC)


 * Thanks for reply, just back from holiday. The group work on this are the WikiProjects for Pharmacology/Drugs (WP:PHARM) and Clinical Medicine (WP:CLINMED), and relevant discussion pages (WT:PHARM and WT:CLINMED). For relevant policy (re not including dosages) see the Medical Manual of Style guideline on drugs WP:MEDMOS, which notes "Do not include detailed dosage and titration information. Such details can be construed as medical advice, they border on trivia, can be country-specific and become quickly out-of-date or easily subject to uninformed edits." Hope that helps :-) Yours David Ruben Talk 23:53, 5 August 2007 (UTC)

Caligula, his wife and daughter
The most detailed description of Caligula's death comes from Josephus. Check out Antiquities of Jews book 19. In Chapter 2.4, we have the death of his wife and daughter. Though its hard to tell how much time has gone bye, a few events happen in between the deaths. Caligula gets killed, the people protest demanding the murderers are brought to justice, the Senate debates, Claudius is spirited away, then Charea gets worried about the wife and kid. Maybe its a matter of hours, maybe days, its hard to say. It is close enough to be considered "at the same time"? Hard to say.Hoshidoshi 20:00, 27 July 2007 (UTC)
