Medicine we don’t need, probably.

Most of our medicines are made in China another nose ring for America that D.C. has paced in it.

With so much Coved cases there no wonder we have such a shortage.

What would it take to have these everyday medicines made here. Hard to believe that WE don’t have a sufficient supply of these common meds.

Hmm. Socialized medicine and the importation of millions of freeloading “rapefugees” who refuse to work while collecting welfare. What could go wrong?

They’re only warning the shortage will last one month? US has been having a shortage of local anesthetics, especially Lidocaine in pretty much all its variations, but also other drugs, like bupivacaine I can substitute for it, since last winter. In the time since it first showed up on the FDA drug shortage list about all that’s changed is the listed date of expected resolution of the shortage has stayed a year in the future. It’s obviously been a priority for the regime to get it fixed</s>

A parent could cut or crush an adult dose and apportion it to a child’s dose.

It was often done that way in the old days.

The reps in D.C. are the ones that caused it Trump fought for it to and was gaining ground but the left made sure he didn’t get the win in 2020.

In my case painless Dermatology. It’s possible there may some local anesthetics designed for and marketed mainly to dentists which my searches for alternatives missed.
