Clonidine (Catapres), C J Wilson, Pembroke College, Molecule of the Month, September 1999: "Two of the most interesting uses for the drug though are in the treatment of alcohol and nicotine withdrawl and in the treatment of ADD (Attention Deficit Disorder). For the treatment of ADD it has been found to reduce hyperactivity especially in children. However, tolerance can develop for the drug and can lead to withdrawl symptoms when taken off the drug. It is usually necessary to continue taking the drug for some time after the condition for which it was prescribed has been cured."

Nurses' Station:"The idea for the Nurses' Station Catalog was conceived in 1989. After searching the marketplace in response to customer inquiries, it became obvious that there were no catalogs of this type serving the nursing profession. To be sure, there were several catalogs offering nurse's uniforms and a smattering of professional items. But there weren't any catalogs at the time offering a range of gifts, clothing, professional items, name badges, shoes and scrubs for nurses. It took two years of hard work to gather samples and put a together a catalog of the most unique and high-quality items for nurses."
