    This document lists various types of drugs and the nutrients they are known to deplete. It groups drugs into categories such as antacids, antibiotics, anti-diabetic drugs, anti-depressants, anti-inflammatories, cardiovascular drugs, diuretics, cholesterol-lowering agents, ulcer medications, hormone replacement therapy, and oral contraceptives. For each drug category and some common brand name examples, it identifies specific vitamins, minerals, and other nutrients that the drugs are associated with depleting. The goal appears to be to inform people about potential nutritional deficiencies that can result from long-term use of certain medications.
