  • From this study (1 day ago):

  • I have had larnygitis now for almost two months now and since two of my meds are new. The atorvast and the amlodipine are the newest, I am curious of one or both of these two medications could be a contrubuting factor for the larnygitis since nothing has cleared it up and I have seen a ENT how performed the scope test where she went into my nose and found nothing
