FDA Bans Natural Human Hormone!

Posted By Wellness Club On June 3, 2008 @ 7:36 pm In Drugs and Alternatives,Hormones | No Comments

Women’s International Pharmacy is a compounding pharmacy that Dr. Myatt trusts to make up custom compounded formulations for her patients.

The folks at Women’s International recently contacted us with the following information and “Call To Action” – we feel that this is very important information for everyone who uses natural products, not just for people using Bio-Identical hormones (both men and women!)

CALL TO ACTION

THE FDA AND WYETH WANT TO TAKE AWAY YOUR BIO-IDENTICAL HORMONES (BHRT)!

Contact Your U.S. Senators and Congressperson Today!

WHAT IS THE ISSUE?

Wyeth, the maker of Premarin® and Prempro®, wants the FDA to prevent the compounding of bio-identical hormones prescribed for you by your doctor.  If Wyeth had its way, it would take away your freedom of choice in medication.  With that said, the FDA recently took action to impose harmful restrictions on the compounding and dispensing of bio-identical hormone replacement therapies (BHRT), which includes bio-identical hormone prescriptions that contain estriol.  Click here for more details: Home Coalition article.

WHAT IS HAPPENING?

U.S. Representatives Mike Ross (Arkansas) and Jo Ann Emerson (Missouri) presented a Sense of the Congress Resolution (H.Con.Res.342), challenging the FDA’s new policy. The resolution is being co-sponsored by U.S. Representatives Tammy Baldwin (Wisconsin), Michael Burgess (Texas), John Carter (Texas), Sam Farr (California) and Gabrielle Giffords (Arizona); deeming FDA’s policy as inappropriate and is requesting reversal of this policy.

WHAT CAN YOU DO RIGHT NOW?

Submit your comments to protect your choices in healthcare by writing to your U.S. Senators and Congressperson now!  Time is of the essence! Congress could act very soon!  It is extremely important that you submit your comments to your U.S. Senators and Congressperson today!  Please note that your comments are most effective by submitting an email form, sharing your personal experiences with BHRT (estriol) and/or other compounded medications stating the positive impact it has had on your quality of life.

Please be sure to visit The Wellness Club website for a very thorough discussion of menopause and sex hormones as well as information on hormone testing.
