Could you please add the “F” to FDA? Thank you.
I don’t know about you, but if I see a cough/cold medicine with DECON as a part of the title, I’m not taking it. It probably works though.
The land of the free and home of the brave requires people to register with the government to buy cold medicines.
Where the hell do these people get off “ordering” a private business to do anything????
“The FDA said no serious side effects from the drugs have been reported, but some users have complained of drowsiness, sedation and irritability after taking them.”
Typical liberal idiots. If SOME people complain of drowsiness, force everyone to suffer. How about “if you have drowsiness, and that’s not to your liking, don’t take it?”. I’ve often experienced drowsiness, sedation and irritability. It happens when I get a cold.
I see one of the ones that I take is on this list. I just refilled the script, so I wonder if I’ll be able to get refills?. How soon do pharmacies get this info from the FDA? It is one that really helps me too.
From the article.
“Companies that manufacture these medications must stop making them within 90 days and stop shipping the products within 180 days, the FDA said.”
Bastards!
The start of Codex Alimentarius. (already in force in the UK.)
Even supplements will need a prescription! Want a Vitamin C tablet? Go to your government doctor to get a ‘script.
Bastards!
Agenda 21?
looks like the ‘BammyCrew is waiting to get their’payment”...
What are those two things you mentioned?
Alka Setzer cold and flu for me but I get the libery arguement. The database is in place. Let them use it. Hell we can’t even buy gold spray paint because of the jerko that fell om his face in the snow last week...
How did FDA unapproved prescription medications get on the shelves in the first place? “Pediahist” for children as young as 1 month? This isn’t affecting already approved cold and allergy medications according to the article. For now.
Lots of scary reading to do:
