Subject: FW: [... NY Times Article: Drugs Pulled From Shelves]
A number of major drug store chains are pulling dozens of over-the-counter
cold remedies and diet pills from their shelves after the government warned
that an ingredient could cause hemorrhagic strokes, especially in young women.
While the risk of a hemorrhagic stroke, or bleeding in the brain, is very
small to an individual user, these are often deadly strokes, and survivors
can be left disabled. The Food and Drug Administration issued an unusually
strong warning Monday, telling Americans to immediately quit using drugs
containing phenylpropanolamine, or PPA, which is found Dexatrim, Tavist-D and
dozens of other over-the-counter medicines. The agency, which intends to ban
the ingredient, asked manufacturers voluntarily to stop selling
PPA-containing drugs immediately and to replace the ingredient with a safer
alternative These products contain phenylpropanolamine, or PPA. The chemical
is also in similar products marketed by many drug store and supermarket
chains as house brands.
