Boycott Wyeth and contact the FDA
I'm so angry about the B-HRT attack by Wyeth. They've filed a
Citizen's Petition with the FDA asking them to impose harmful
restrictions on the compounding and dispensing of bio-identical
hormones.  To read Wyeth's petition (Docket # 2005P-0411) go to
http://www.fda.gov/ohrms/dockets/dockets/05p0411/05p-0411-cp00001-01-
vol1.pdf

Unlike Wyeth products B-HRT is identical to the hormones our bodies
produce. Since 1981, I've been dealing with symptoms of
endometriosis,  hypothyroidism and CFIDS/FMS/MCS. A friend tried
everything and has had the best treatment results with B-HRT.

My doctor and I should have the right to choose what medications I
take.  I don't need a drug company conglomerate dictating to me what
my doctor can prescribe for me on an individual basis. Therefore, I
am boycotting these products made by Wyeth's Consumer Healthcare
Products Division. I urge you to vote with your dollars too!

Advil Brands
Alavert
Anbesol
Caltrate
Centrum
Centrum Performance
Chap Stick
Dimetapp
FiberCon
Freelax
Preparation H
Primatene
Robitussin Brands

In addition to filing your comments with the FDA,

I also urge you to contact your government representatives to stopthis Wyeth Petition.

1. I'd like to file a comment against the Wyeth proposal.

The link seems to be nonfunctioning, however. Maybe it's just a glitch. I'll try again, later. :hi:

Edited to add that the link for Wyeth's petition comes up as "page not found." Interesting.
