i was looking up some information on cyclobenzaprine (the generic name for Flexeril), taking a look at some of the side effects. the website cracks me up (not hard to do, i guess).
throughout the page, various terms are linked so that, when you click on them, you get a little javascript pop-up that defines the term. some of the words that are linked for quick 'n' easy definition are human, breast, mouse, age, male and animal, while terms such as vacuolation, tachycardia, hyperpyretic and myocardial infarction are not.
if the site is mainly for use by the average Joe or Jane on the street, you'd think the medical terms would be defined. if the site is meant to be a reference for medical professionals, would you really want to use the physicians or pharmacists who don't know what a mouse or a male is?
