Not that you need any special reason to reflexively doubt the words coming out of a publicist's mouth in the moments following a client crisis, but a troublemaking reader with pharmacy credentials writes in to refute the flack-approved explanation of "dehydration" for Lindsay Lohan's latest suspicious hospital stay:

Having worked in a hospital pharmacy for 12 years, I know that Vitamin B (Thiamine, typically 100mg injected intramuscularly) shots are NOT given for 'dehydration', or 'heat exhaustion', but rather for alcohol detox, and to help avoid the sometimes dangerous symptoms and/or seizure activity associated with "DT's".

We understand that a publicist might feel pressure to mix up her excuses to demonstrate to a troubled client that she's getting her money's worth, but things can get tricky where emergency medicine is involved. Perhaps Lohan's embattled mouthpiece should've gone with the already established "asthma," a condition we would've happily believed to be aggravated by "105 degree weather," rather than getting too cute with telling details about Vitamin B shots.
